Sipo.

Eastern time to Chile Time is -0 during the northern summer and -2 during the southern summer.

(Don't forget also that Chile is fairly far east - SCL is almost due south of PWM)

is due to daylight savings time changes.

they change the time to -1 in SCL first.
after a couple of weeks eastern time changes and make the difference to -2.

what doesn't make sense is the nov 2nd arrival 6.50.. I think it might be wrong as nov 1 and nov 3 is 7.50.. it should change only after nov 7.

Not great - these changes caused my SCL connection to go from 50 minutes to 5 hours.

It will change again in March. LA will soon increase frequency on the SCL-JFK route to daily.
