Between arrival at SCL and the next report time, a well-run Santiago layover is about one thing: quality recovery. Aircrew Travel plans Santiago layovers around the crew, not the other way round.
Protecting the rest window
Strategic napping and light exposure help crews cope with the window of circadian low after landing in Santiago. Aircrew Travel pairs fast transfers with quiet rooms so sleep can start sooner.
Beating jet lag in Santiago

- Stay hydrated and keep late meals light
- Keep the room dark and cool to lengthen usable sleep in Santiago

Staying safe and on schedule
