ORD nonstop connectivity to mexico and central america is actually pretty good, but to south america proper there is only the one lone united flight to sao paolo. 9/10 times you'll be routed through houston or miami or dallas or NYC to get to south america from chicago.
hell, my parents went to chile last fall and found the most competitive fare to santiago was on air canada routed through toronto!
it would be nice to see ORD get more nonstop SA service. and with this new international service push with the proposed international gateway, it might just happen. it'd be nice to pick up cities like buenos aires, santiago, bogota, and lima for starters to at least put us on par with toronto.
