I have looked up on AC's website that there is a "stop" SFO-YYZ-SCL-EZE. However, there seems to be no change of plane at SCL. Is this true? Do you just sit there whilst the crew refuels or something?

You get off the plane, go through security, back up to the departure lounge, and re-board, with a new crew.

I think you do go through security at SCL again, before reboarding your plane to EZE. I went through SCL in both directions, and I just can't say for sure (probably feeling spacey right then). I do know that if you just follow the direction flow you are told to go, everything works out very smoothly.

No, I'm talking about the total time the aircraft is on the ground. I was off the plane, through security and back in the departure area in less than 10 minutes. (I have connected SCL many times, but only once on AC).

El 'Chileno' Eastbay is the SCL authority on this forum....
