United Airlines is the second North American carrier to pause its services to Chile after the airline decided to suspend its connection between Houston and Santiago. The route will be paused from March 30, 2024, and not return until late October next year.
United follows in the footsteps of fellow Star Alliance partner Air Canada, which also announced its intentions to pause its Toronto Pearson to Santiago route only a few weeks ago.
