JonNYC - a great place to visit. Qantas has just opened up a codeshare with Lan Chile to Australia, and cancelled its EZE direct service, so anyone flying from here direct to South america MUST land there by choice. What an invol. stopover.

Went there years ago and it is neat. I recall another thread on the boards recently about some folks heading for Santiago Chile later 2002, and IIFC Easter Island was on the "must do" list? Watch it in Chile - when you land - US, Canadian and Oz citizens get stung for about $40 cash money before you ever get to immigration, or that was the deal a year or so back.
