Good!! Especially about Southern Winds. With Aerolineas insisting on charging us much, much higher "gringo fares," we norteamericanos don't really have any choice but to give our business to SW.

I never had the chance to fly LAPA, but I have flown many of the secondary, modestly-capitalized national airlines in your part of the world, like Sky in Chile. I'm expecting old airplanes, mediocre (old technology) check-in, good in-flight service and reasonable punctuality. Does SW meet that standard?
