Quoting SCL767 (Reply 9): However the Chilean airline Ladeco, which was acquired by LAN Chile in 1995, served both IAD and BWI.
I remember briefly about Ladeco at BWI. Sad that they never continued service when taken over by LAN. Had they been successful maybe other South and Central American airlines would have used BWI. Who knows? Maybe our International pier would be rocking along with us FL having international service. Then maybe they could have extended Concourse E or even went ahead with developing Concourse F.

The service to BWI operated via MIA. However, LAN does plan on serving Washington-IAD in the future. LAN currently serves six destinations in the U.S. with the addition of the MCO seasonal service. LAN also operates into FLL daily from BOG, but will transfer the service over to its focus city at MIA next month.

I have the impresion than during january 1999 Lan Chile started seasonal MCO? it was my first time there and I think to rememeber it, but maybe I'm just confused with MIA airport...
On a side note, funny how LAN loves to add flags of Peru, Argentina, Ecuador and now Colombia in their fuselage, never Chilean. How insulting...

As far as I know, in LanPeru, LAN Chile owns 49%, which means, the airline is not Chilean, but Peruvian. They can put their flag there if they want.
If LAN Chile does not put Chilean flags into their planes, its their problem. I find insulting you bashing your neighboring countries....

My interpretation was that it was a comment about LAN, not LanChile. LAN; the multinational group. How about CC-CEB? I flew that in 2006 on LA705 MAD-SCL. Nothing Peruvian about that reg or flight .. wonder why it had a Peruvian flag?

No, just bashing LAN for what they do to Chile. Good for the rest of the countries they flag the colors as it should. I don't see the insult of my comment to you, not personal

Precisely, an aircraft registred in Chile with foreign flag...

I don't know about the other countries, but here in Colombia all Colombian airplanes are required to have the flag somewhere in the fuselage (usually the nose) and up in the tail.
If you look at pictures of Avianca or Copa Airlines Colombia airplanes you will see it.
Colombian regulations allow for foreign registered airplanes to be considered Colombian under certain conditions.
All LAN Colombia airplanes, including those A320s with Chilean registration, are considered Colombian airplanes in our regulations, and thus must have the flags as described.
As a side note, this creates a situation where some Copa Airlines Colombia airplanes have flags of two different countries, as they are considered Colombian in our laws, but have Panamanian registration, and Panamanian law asks for airplanes registered there to have the Panamanian flag, so they end up having the two.
This said, I see where are you coming from and I agree, I am the first person to whine about Colombian airlines being allowed to have airplanes registered EI, VP, PH, N, CC and whatnot... but in the other hand I know it does not really matter and dealing with Colombian authorities is an exercise in frustration and money-wasting.
LAN airplanes have the star in the tail... by no means a flag but representing Chile nonetheless.
I gladly accept donations to pay for flight hours! This thing draws man...

So Chile does not have such law? I thought a plane cannot wear another flag than where its registered.
My bad here, I did not understand the original comment. I apologize

Yes, the livery recalls Chile undoubtly

Apparently no such law... Don't need to apologize, it happens to all of us, just happy you don't feel offended anymore.
I've always thought LAN could add "a la SAS" (I mean not the actual flags due to regulations, but an stilish version) all the flags they are representing now, becoming the true Latin American identity they claim...
Yes, it stood for Línea Aérea Del Cobre or in English, the "Airline of Copper". In 1995, LAN Chile acquired Ladeco. During 1998, LAN Chile merged Ladeco with Fast Air, which became known as LAN Express. LAN Express is currently a subsidiary of LAN Airlines S.A.
In 1929, LAN was born as Línea Aeropostal Santiago-Arica.
In 1930, it was renamed Línea Aérea Nacional de Chile.
In 2004, LAN Chile was renamed LAN Airlines S.A.
