Voice of Travelers to Concepcion

Visiting Concepcion with an airfare ticket for the first class

I visited Concepcion last year. I was invited to Concepcion conference on agriculture and all my costs were covered by the partner ticket agent with whom we cooperate. I flew with LATAM Chile from Santiago to Concepcion. My ticket was booked for economy class. The airfare ticket was probably quite expensive as the ticket was purchased only a week before my trip to Concepcion. I did not buy the ticket though so I did not pay attention to the ticket fare. The service aboard on the way to Concepcion was good. Concepcion is an interesting city. I would love to visit Conceptcion next year as well, if I find a reasonably-priced airfare ticket myself.

Airfare ticket to Concepcion for vacation

I decided to travel to Concepcion for a quick beach vacation while working in Santiago de Chile. I booked a ticket last minute with LATAM Chile. The ticket agent offered me a shuttle bus ticket and accommodation in Concepcion as well. The ticket to Concepcion was quite cheap but the hotel downtown Concepcion was a bit expensive. LATAM Childe delivered great service and when I needed to change the ticket date for returning back from Concepcion my ticket agent charged very little money for the ticket change. I recommend LATAM Childe for travel to Concepcion.
