Conclusion
This is a shoulder season for both of the countries and the paid fares can be rather low. I am actually on my way to Santiago tomorrow for a weekend. Really like the city.
Here are the terms and conditions of this offer:
- Saver Award discount is only valid for air travel. Promotion period ends at 11:59 p.m. on April 26, 2015.

- For this offer, a roundtrip is defined as travel from an origin city to a destination city with return travel ending at the first origin city, and with all segments on flights operated by United Airlines. A segment is defined as one takeoff and one landing. Open jaw itineraries within the same region do qualify for the discount. Stopovers do not qualify for this offer.
- The discounted Saver Award is combinable with other award types as long as the itinerary is roundtrip (e.g., a member can book a Standard Award for the outbound portion of an itinerary and a Saver Award for the return portion, or vice versa) but only the flight segments purchased with a Saver Award will be eligible for a 25% discount.
