Sleeping in SCL or overnight lounge access

I was briefly through SCL a few years ago so I don't have much recollection.

I have a reservation later this year where I'm flying LAN in from LIM and arriving at 1am. I will be leaving the following morning on LAN at 8am-ish to Easter Island.

Based upon that, i wasn't planning on getting a hotel room. I see there is a priority pass lounge in the international terminal that is open 24 hours but i'm not sure I can access it since the flight to easter island is a domestic flight.

Does anyone have any insight? thanks!

You cannot access the Pacific Club on the int'l side, and the domestic side lounge doesn't open until 0600. I don't know where you can camp out landside all that time - maybe a coffee shop is open, I am not sure.

There is a Holiday Inn right at the airport. It is less than a one minute walk once you go outside.

The Pacific Club (domestic) does have a rather utilitarian shower, so if you paid the day fee you should be able to use it just after 6am (if you otherwise kept yourself awake, and if the club opens on time).

I face the same issue enroute to IPC in December.

I went ahead and booked the airport HI for 15000 reward points,
which you can buy for $90 if you know the secret password.

I ended up doing the 5000 points + $60 offer which is a pretty good deal.

Eastbay1K, according to the map on the Pacific Club website. There are two Pacific clubs, one with a shower and one that allows smoking



We are arriving at 5am from LIM and rather than dilly around for a day in Santiago then go to PMC on a bus, we have decided to have a scrub up in the Pacific Club lounge and fly straight down there the same morning.

Do you happen to know if it is possible to go into one lounge, have a shower, get a pass out to go to the other lounge for a smoke, then come back to the main lounge? I don't suppose they are interlinked are they?

No idea - they are near each other, but not linked like the ones on the Int'l side.
