Don't get too excited about the free booze part of LAN. In coach it is not exactly free flowing. Prior to the meal service you might be able to get a whiskey, wine or beer but most likely would have to wait for the meal service and get it then. The wine is poured from the bottle and one glass. If you are able to flag a flight attendant down you might be able to snag a refill but I have found that hit or miss. Otherwise, yes LAN offers excellent service in Y, but dealing with a transfer from AA to LAN at MIA might not be so wonderful.
