The issue is with your local machine time zone, so if you want to search for One-way flights, adjust your time zone to (UTC-3:00) City of Buenos Aires

Thank you for updating this thread with this fix. I have to travel LATAM frequently and this has annoyed me for a long time!!

Book LATAM from Auckland as a Qantas Code share

Sample search, same date & flight on 18th of May from both QF and Latam Websites

Same Flight $231 Cheaper $848 USD = Circa $1360NZD
If you are QFF Frequent Flyer, you will get more points.
You can book one way without changing time zones or VPN
If anything goes wrong it's a QF flight number attached to the ticket, so they are responsible for getting your there if you get bumped (including flying you via the US at their expense)
Their call centre (after Alan Joyce was ousted) is usually answered within 15-20 minutes.

Kia ora Guys!

Thankfully, I found this thread and didn't feel alone 😊

My word... LATAM applications... 😭

It is true that from New Zealand, and other places for sure, you can only search for Round trips, even using a VPN.

The issue is with your local machine time zone, so if you want to search for One-way flights, adjust your time zone to (UTC-3:00) City of Buenos Aires

Don't forget to change it back after you finish 😉

Enjoy!

Ngā mihi,

Thanks for this. I ended up booking my flights to Lima with Delta, but was able to finally book my domestic flights in Peru via Latam directly with this trick.
