This is a little ambiguous given that Latin America = South America + Central America... its like having a "UK" and an "England" board...

drop one or the other.

I agree, one for S. America and one for C. America.

I mentioned in the "suggestions" forum that there should be "Central America (including Mexico)" and South America. That way, not only would there be no confusion about where to post Central American info, but it would be clear that the Spanish speaking nations of the Caribbean would be "Caribbean" as opposed to "Latin America."

so confusing: latin and south american and carribean....

which part of south america is not latin? guyana or surinam used to belong to holland and speak dutch? or some of those carribean island which speaks english? (french is also latin)

is this just a web-designer who has poor geographic knowledge? randy should fix as it is embarassing for a travel site to show such ignorance in geohraphy

perhaps there is a point: latin america also includes part of TX/CA/FL....since they belonged to mexico/spain long time ago...

I suggest to have all countries in one Latin America board regardless the language spoken. That's much simple than having many boards seperating them into three categories: South America, Carribean and Central America. Adios http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttravel_forum/smile.gif
