Thanks guys. I don't know why I didn't think of Zuji!
The person is located in Sao Paulo (GRU) so it looks like a hop to SCL will be in order first.
If I let Zuji quote flexible dates, the fare can be as low as ~USD1,900 and it offers a lot of different carriers - NZ, AR, UA, SA, QF, LA and RG, but it appears there are minimum stays for some longer than I want.
However If I specify dates and make it a short stay (e.g. 4 days), the lowest fare is QF/LA's for USD2,644. It also shows some crazy fares, e.g. flying AC via YYZ for USD4,070 and flying US via ORD and SFO for USD7,275. :shock: Might as well take an RTW for that price.
I phoned LA in Australia and they quoted AUD2,494 + 30.00 fine of some sort. At least I have some options.
