South American trip in Business Class
Hi All,
Did not know really where to post this so here goes.
Travelling out next Jan for a Galapagos trip with a post cruise add on in Peru. Travelling out to UIO & back from from LIM.
Would appreciate views on which carrier is the best to use for a quality business class experience. Ideally would like fully flat beds.
Await your thoughts
Regards
Colin

If you are traveling from the location in your profile (London), you could use OneWorld and fly LHR - JFK - UIO, LIM - JFK - LHR.
The LHR - JFK leg could be on BA or AA. The JFK - UIO and LIM - JFK could be on LAN. Both BA and LAN offer fully flat beds in Business, while AA is starting to outfit the 777s to it NGBC (Almost all the 763s have it already).
You could also go LHR - MIA - UIO, LIM - MIA - LHR, using the same mix of OneWorld carrriers.
A third option is LHR - MAD - UIO, LIM - MAD - LHR, using Iberia to UIO and back (also part of OneWorld), and they have a very nice Business Class product.
You can go to the www.oneworld.com website and build an itinerary using the OneWorld carriers.
