The lounges in domestic take lots of credit cards, but Chilean ones. There is nothing that a 1W multi-elite can do to get lounge access. Buy a coffee and get wireless access free. Now you know why LAN makes so much money!
I prefer the LAN international lounge, so that is where I hang out if I have time before the flight. However, I usually arrive with webcheck-in printout and go straight to gate.
All LAN flights have the split boarding for expensive tickets and elites on one side and the rabble on the other. Of course, on a domestic sector in Chile, you may well be sitting next to the rabble shortly! I have been the only elite on some flights and I am not sure that a queue of one is possible, even for a Brit.
