How early can I go airside at SCL?
Hi, I am flying to CJC in November. My flight is at 7 am, so it might be easier and more convenient for me to just spend the night at the airport. I am a Comodoro (through a status match), but that is probably irrelevant as there is no domestic OW lounge anyway.
I do however have a LoungeClub membership, allowing me to get into the Pacific Club lounge, which apparently operates 24/7. Staying there for a few hours would be great.
If I do online check in, would the security at SCL let me through the night before? Does anyone know if the Pacific Lounge have any restrictions on how long I can stay there?

I would recommend staying at the Holiday Inn Express adjacent to the Terminal. It only adds a 2min walk plus security control, which is usually no issue for SCL domestic ...
I don't know the hours and access overnight to Pacific Club, but there are no sofas or the like, so you'll have to sleep in a chair ...

I don't really mind sleeping in a chair. Assuming that the info on their own website is true (ie. the lounge is open 24/7), then how would I do it? Check in online and try going through security in the middle of the night?

You'll be able to print your boarding pass at the 48 hour mark. If you are not checking bags you don't even need to go to the check-in counter.
