airplanemode_activeFlights to Puerto Montt (PMC)
Puerto Montt is a fast growing city in the south of [wiki=2e6507f70a9cc26fb50f5fd82a83c7ef]Chile[/wiki], just north of [wiki=1834d05ddf265c2396ec0be4997fa98d]Chiloé Island[/wiki]. It boasts great views of the ocean and towering peaks of the andes, and is a centre for travellers heading further south along the [wiki=e8d8ec9e92ca706a8d6791fbdd59639e]Carretera Austral[/wiki], or east to Argentina.

By plane
There are flights north to [wiki=37b2eaeb7ad06c9a8ae273d1252cc29d]Santiago[/wiki] (1 hour 40 minutes) and south to [wiki=ec04b3b4d5b9351da5a0f45a892198ac]Punta Arenas[/wiki] (2 hours).

By bus
Buses pull in at the large and bustling terminal in the middle of town close to the harbour (Diego Portales & Lillo). Many departures to cities in the north, as well as services to [wiki=1834d05ddf265c2396ec0be4997fa98d]Chiloé Island[/wiki]. Cruz del Sur are the fastest, since they own many of the ferries crossing the strait and the bus bypasses the waiting line. Buses to [wiki=3632a990cf8305642f715665cd79fcec]Bariloche[/wiki] in [wiki=3536be57ce0713954e454ae6c53ec023]Argentina[/wiki] takes around 7 hours.

By ferry
Navimag has boats to and from [wiki=af394d7b6be374cf1ca28cc685b91766]Puerto Natales[/wiki] and Puerto Chacabuco. The latter costs Ch$ 38000 pp, Ch$ 100000 for a car. To Puerto Natales it will cost you between USD 350 (on the older ferry "Amedeo I") and USD 450 (or more, on the newer ferry "Eden"). The passage takes four days, and includes chances of viewing narrow straits, open sea and wildlife. Meals are included, beer (Ch$ 2500) and wine (Ch$ 5000 per bottle) can be bought on board. It is sometimes possible to arrange a short visit to the very remote Puerto Eden, which has this ferry as it's only link to the rest of the world (Ch$ 5000 extra).
Other companies whose name and routes change frequently have ferries to Chaiten on the carretera austral. Many departures in summer, but often only one per week in winter. The ferry to [wiki=1834d05ddf265c2396ec0be4997fa98d]Chiloé Island[/wiki] leaves about 50 km south west of town, takes 30 min and cost Ch$ 1000 pp and Ch$ 11300 for a car.
Naviera Austral connects Puerto Montt with Chaiten. Ferry leaves at midnight and journey takes 10-12 hours. Simple seat costs Ch$19100, berths are two times more expensive. Check the Naviera Austral website for current schedule: http://www.navieraustral.cl
Kémelbus now has a service called "ruta bimodal" which takes passengers to Chaitén by bus and ship in a daily, 10-hour scenic trip through the fjords south of Puerton Montt.
