December and January include Christmas and New Year travel, and June to August is Milan's summer and the European holiday period; February, March, April, May, September and October fall between those. Moving a departure or return by a day can change the fare, so use the price calendar rather than assuming one fixed price.
Airlines and what to expect
Start by checking what the fare includes: a low headline price may exclude checked baggage, seat choice, meals or changes, while a higher fare may bundle some of them. On this route there are no nonstop flights, and the carriers listed include LATAM Airlines, Azul, GOL Linhas Aereas S.A., Iberia, EuroAtlantic Airways, Swiss, Latam Airlines Brasil, Turkish Airlines, TAP Portugal and American Airlines. The carrier printed on your ticket decides transit city, baggage rules and meal service, so read the fare conditions before you buy, not after.
