The x-ray operator was very thorough: they wanted to see the plastic knife I had in my suitcase (which turned out to be OK), as well as the 50 cent plastic corkscrew (which they confiscated). But the wine -- no problem!

LAN did not enforce their carry on baggage limits. My wife and I each carried a rollerboard and a backpack. We printed boarding passes off the LAN website (remember to print 2 copies). Nobody said a word about our luggage in each direction from BA to Mendoza.
