Chile is actually aligned with the Atlantic time zone, one hour east of EST. During Chile's summer, which is now, they are two hours ahead of EST.
South America is East of North America, not directly South.

Not aware of TAR travel rules, however, another flight possibility is LAN airlines, which I have personally flown from LAX to Mexico City/Lima/Rio and there are frequent connections to Santiago de Chile and nonstops to from LAX to Santiago. These outward bound flights are long, 20+ hours. Flies from Bradley terminal and code shares with AA. Not sure where at LAX teams were photographed.
Could explain no teams yet?? I'm just sayin...
Great spoiler site!

TAR travel rules: On the first leg, TPTB pre-reserve a block of seats on one or more flights. (Only exceptions TAR 8 - which stayed in North America, and TAR 15 where TPTB provided the tickets for the 11 teams that completed the start line task. Teams are informed of the available flight options and teams try to get the pre-reserved fkight they think is the better choice. They do not make reservations based on their own teamwork at the ticket counter.

The AA flight from Miami to Santiago was in fact a codeshare with LAN.

I just got up and my coffee has't hit my brain yet but do I understand correctly that they have not been seen since leaving LA?
