    Good on BK for his support of Chile's progress =)

    Good on LAN. One of the things I like about this airline is that they have a modern fleet., even for short internal flights.

    One of the things I hate is that they code share with that piece of crap Iberia. You buy your ticket from Lan and then find they put you on a 1980s bucket operated by Iberia. Lan should have nothing to do with them.

    Well, American Airlines still has a bigger fleet, but they are not as profitable as LAN, their fleet aging and detoriating. Would pick LAN hands down, if it is an option.

    I agree. Lan everytime. American Airlines flight assistants are 50 years old plus, grumpy old dolls who yell at you and throw you a bag of pretzels if you are good. On Iberia I fear for my life. Aerolineas...I'm not that stupid.
