There are flights from Santiago directly to Puerto Natales, however, they are very expensive and only run in high season twice a week, Tuesdays and Saturdays. But Puerto Natales is well connected by Bus to Punta Arenas with daily flights to and from Santiago.

If enough people are interested we will be trying to organize some tours with better group prices for the free day on Thursday. More information will be posted later.
