Check in for LAN with US Airways Award Ticket Question
Hi there!
When trying to check in on the LAN airlines website for my US Air award ticket from LIM to EZE the website informs me that I must check in at the airport. The US Airways site is telling me it must be 24 hours before my flight to check in (which is normal for US airlines I know).
My concern is the last time the LAN website told me to check in at the airport it turned into an hour and half ordeal in which my ticket had been mysteriously cancelled and I had to purchase a new ticket. I would like to avoid that sort of mess again...
Basically, will I be checking in on the LAN website or the US Airways website?
Thanks for the help!

LAN. And not all requests to check-in at the airport end in disaster. I had a message from the LAn website that they could not check me in online but checking-in at the airport was a breeze. It is sensible to go earlier, though, to be on the safe side.

Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, I'm going to be connecting from another flight on LAN (CUZ-LIM), different itinerary that lands at 11:10am. My fight to EZE leaves at 1:10pm.
Is there any way I'd be able to check in for LIM - EZE flight at the CUZ airport?

Why don't you call LAN ans ask if everything is OK with your ticket?
