LACSA not LACASA, make it sound like the Asian yummy noodle soup LAKSA.

Lacsa (Spanish: Lineas Aéreas Costarricenses S.A.), is the national airline of Costa Rica and is based in San José. It operates international scheduled services to over 35 destinations in Central, North and South America. All international services are now operated by Grupo TACA.[1][2][3] Out of the five airlines that made up the original TACA alliance, Lacsa is the only airline of the group that still operates international flights with its own IATA code (LR) and flight numbers.[citation needed] As a subsidiary of Grupo TACA, the airline is also known as TACA/LACSA.[citation needed]
Now the other LAKSA:
Laksa is a popular spicy noodle soup from the Peranakan culture, which is a merger of Chinese and Malay elements found in Malaysia and Singapore, and Indonesia.
