Cristina Fernandez travels to the south; ankle fracture convalescence could take over a month
Argentine President Cristina Fernandez, who is suffering from a broken ankle, left on Tuesday afternoon for Calafate in Santa Cruz province, after doctors allowed her to travel. She plans to spend New Year with the family and in good spirits twitted about the authorization, presented her smallest pet, a toy-caniche “Lolita” and announced that small pets will be allowed to travel in all domestic Aerolineas and Austral flights.

My first thought also.... thats how she, and Evita, got the jobs in the first place.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 04:10 am - Link - Report abuse 0Cristina also thanked all the sad English losers that wished her well.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 04:56 am - Link - Report abuse 0So she flew to BA to get an Xray and then needed the doctor's clearance so she could fly back whence she came..... oh OK.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 05:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0So...its official then , you can't get an xray south of BA.

Only an Argie would want to be in the same aeroplane cabin as their pet dog/cat when it farts and throws up.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 08:55 am - Link - Report abuse 0A limited number of small dogs and cats are allowed on flights in a number of countries so Argentina is not unique. Having travelled on Aerolineas many times I know they are cramped and that the passengers are inclined to flaunt any and all rules. It is the only airline I have experienced people standing up when the plane is landing, ignoring the flight attendants completely and flighting over space in the overhead bins. Rules are there to be broken, right? I just can't see them sticking to the rules regarding pets onboard. JMO
Dec 31st, 2014 - 09:39 am - Link - Report abuse 0Thank God that Mercopress picks up these vital world-shattering matters for ; international concern: dogs and cats permitted by Royal Decree (CFK) on airlines...Sympathy (ahhh! pets- and -us) tactics linked with injured ankle connections. All part of Leadership.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 10:42 am - Link - Report abuse 0Elaine, I recognise your description of Latino airlines. The worst of all is Iberia, a true basket case. I once watched a looney bloke roaming around the cabin during landing whilst the Iberia cabin crew sat and gossiped. The food stinks (if there is any). My Aerolinas flights were unmemorable.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 10:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0Perhaps a dog will bite her other ankle in flight, that will serve her right.

I hope the “ small pets ” don't get carried away and do exactly what the Argentine conscipts did and shit and piss wherever they took a fancy to. Can you imagine the dog fights and sitting there minding your own business and a dog comes along and cocks it's leg and pisses on your leg. I thought CFK was a bit crazy but I don't think she has thought this through.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 11:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0@11 I have avoided Iberia because of its terrible reputation. Unfortunately BA have merged with them and they dominate some of the routes to SoAm. Fortunately I can schedule some work stops in the U.S. and travel south from there to avoid using them. I really enjoy the LAN dreamliners, great service and comfortable beds.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 11:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0Remember the Aerolineas pilots fighting in the cockpit?
I would never fly Aerolinas Argentina. They don't maintain their planes and they have the oldest long haul airplanes in the world.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 12:06 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Small pets are allowed on most airlines but they're limited to 1 per cabin for $75. You have to buy a carrier that fits underneath the seat.
@15 I haven't flown long haul with Aerolineas, just reading the reviews is horror enough but there is often no choice for domestic flights and I needed to get around.
Dec 31st, 2014 - 12:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Yes, small pets on domestic flights is not that unusual but I can't imagine people sticking to the rules there.
Elaine, as an economy passenger on the Dreamliner to Santiago and back I agree that LAN are fantastic, must be great in business class but in retirement its either economy or many less trips. The only problem was the sub Ryanair Iberia flight to Madrid to pick up LAN. I could not believe the no food or drink policy. We took sandwiches on the way back. To get to Costa Rica we flew to the US where we had to go in and out via immigration rather than fly on bloody Iberia on the way there and the way back. Problem is we want to go to Peru next? Hmmm..

I really think their intent is to create such a financial disaster for the next Prez that there is no way for them to get out of it.
Inflation will be well over 50% even with the economy in deep recession.
It baffles my mind.
@5. “Cristina announced that small pets will be allowed to travel in all domestic Aerolineas and Austral flights”. Just to avoid any accusation of preferential treatment. But at least we can see what 'small pets' will be allowed on board. Rats, vipers, piranha, sharks (small), hyenas, most lizards, octopii, venomous spiders are all possibilities. A new age of 'freedom'! Until something gets on to the flight deck and kills the pilots. I wonder what the IATA rules say? In latest news, an Aerolineas flight was left circling for 10 hours whilst attempts were made to recapture a pet rat. Eventually, the aircraft was allowed to land and everything on board was gassed. The body of the rat was eventually discovered after 212 human (argie) bodies had been removed. In breaking news, IATA has declared that argie aircraft will not be allowed, under any circumstances, to land in any other country. Ever. Member airlines are authorised to request national governments to destroy argie aircraft in the air in such a way that nothing can survive.

I could well be wrong...
@17 Maybe fly through Miami and pick up a LAN flight to Lima? I don't think the dreamliner is on that route yet but it would surely be better than Iberia? Or you could get an Air France flight from Amsterdam to Lima for pretty good prices. A Chilean friend of mine who lives in Europe uses the Paris - Santiago route often and says Air France is quite acceptable both in Economy and Business. Just suggestions.

I flew with Libyan Arab Airlines many years ago and they ( the locals ) would have to be told not to light up the camping gas stoves to have a chi ( tea ) whilst travelling on the plane. When the planes had successfully landed a cheer went up. Fortuneately most of the pilots were of European descent. They also took no notice of the cabin crew when landing.

Don't you think it's a mistake to vomit during a meal? Or is just a greedy desire to eat the same thing again? There is, of course, a desire to speak rather than allow argies to monopolise 'conversation'. Perhaps argies should learn to 'listen'.

We know what our nation has done. We can relate occurrences to the 'norms' at the time. By the 19th century you'd had a thousand years to learn to be civilised. But you stayed in the Dark Ages. Suited your 'personalities'. Time is running out. You may think you can call the shots. In reality, you are a tiny little insect that can be swatted when we choose.

It only came to public notice after your dear leader had too much to drink celebrating one of your favorite non holidays.
After finding out the hard way, your dear leader commandeered the airport for a few hours while flights going in and were held up, angering many “little people.” Then your dear leader went to BA for an X ray(!) and flew back with a dog on board. Now I realize you don't give a flying flip about the “little people,” but you've got a problem.
Here's a tip,(although I suspect you already know this.) If and when you ever set up that personal autarky you dream of, you are going to have to chop off heads. A LOT of them. ;)

@46 No one told me to celebrate, least of all 'some Roman Emperor'. But it is a national holiday here today so most people enjoy the company of friends and family, and get together. Of course, you would need some friends and people that care about you for you to understand that concept. It would seem from the many messages I received from friends in Argentina that they were doing much the same thing as me. It is just you that is an anti-social outcast.

Jan 02nd, 2015 - 08:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Tobi, you still don't get what the holdout case is about, do you?
The case is centered around bonds that were issued AFTER the big Argie default in 2000. Your country desperately needed $$$, and could only get it by agreeing to bonds under special terms. Issued under US laws, subject to US courts, and above all, not to short or restructure them. Then your country turned around and did that anyway, precisely what you promised NOT to do. THAT is why the courts have all ruled against Argentina. Once they read the actual language of the bonds, they could not find any other way.
The fact that the bonds got sold and ended up in someone else's hands, that's how all bonds work. That is what you do with bonds...

Jan 02nd, 2015 - 08:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Just remember, it isn't the holdouts that did this to the people of Santa Cruz. It's Kirchner, her factotums run the province, and the provincial government was the responsible entity to pay for the maintenance of the hospital machines. Over a year and a half ago, the scanner underwent maintenance and a bill was sent to the provincial government. Not millions of dollars here, we are talking about routine maintenance that was done on a machine that was already paid for. Whatever the cost, let's say a few thousand USD,( kinda doubt it would be more,) the provinvial government refused to pay, and when the machine eventually needed more maintenance, it was left sitting gathering dust.Five days before Kirchner got drunk, the X ray machine also broke down. Naturally, nobody comes to fix the machines. So you tell me, why wasn't the bill paid to begin with? Up till the drunk fell down, nobody cared about the people who lived there. They spent more money on the bar bill of the presidential Christmas party.

It's not a matter of choice. They know no better. Only those who have travelled abroad, to 1st world countries, realize how things could/should be, and what they are missing out on.

Jan 07th, 2015 - 09:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0While, on principle, I prefer a - decent - civilian government to a Military regime, I've got to defend the Military in Brazil, who in 1964 prevented the country from being delivered into the hands of the USSR and other stinking (local) communists. The fact that they stayed in power for 21 years was mainly because they did not believe Brazilians were ready for 'democracy'....No-one denies that they stepped over certain limits with regards to human rights, but what most people don't see - or don't WANT to see, is that there was already an armed movement against the civilian government ('democratically' elected in 1960) under way in 1961, and what these so-called 'freedom-fighters' did, is now conveniently swept under the carpet. The one-sided “Comissão Nacional da Verdade” (National Commission for the Truth), instituted by the PT, denied the Military the right to investigate the crimes perpetrated by the leftist guerillas (as of 1961 - kidnapping civilians for ransom, bank robberies, assaulting and blowing up Military barracks to rob explosives and firearms, political assassinations, all with dozens of civilian, as well as many military casualties).....The fact remains that I, managed to get on pretty well with my life, without the slightest hassle from the Military...as did everyone else who was not involved with the armed rebellion. Another thing to be said for the Military - they were relatively honest - all 5 Military presidents left office with the same assets as when they got in. No millionaires. The proof that the Military was right in being concerned about the civilians ability to resume power, became apparent shortly after the 1st civilian president, José Sarney took office. With the exception of Fernando Henrique Cardoso (2 terms, 1995-2002), all civilian presidents after 1985, screwed up big-time. The PT is here to prove it.

Considering the options in 2015, if the Government keeps on with the same crap, Brazil will end up losing. If civilian governments did their job, reasonably efficiently, and with a minimum of prevarication and corruption, there would be no need for the Military to intervene.
