Then again, if Colombians and Peruvians are desperate to avoid the USA when travelling to Asia, they really don't have a lot of good options other than to use AC.
Good analysis re AC's aircraft types.
Maybe not so much re South Americans desperate to avoid the US having no other options than AC ("pssst" says AeroMexico).
