Just got back from flying 7 LP airlines on May 5 - 8. All went well except had to overnite in MIA as I arrived 30 mins. before the TACA flight to MGA. TACA said the flight was already closed and they wouldn't budge even though I had no bags. Be sure you allow enough time to check-in for all these carriers. Flew MIA-MGA-SAL-GUA. 30 min connect in SAL was no prob. Next day,
GUA-SJO-BOG-CCS. Was a bit worried in BOG as we took off on Avianca for Caracas and were informed we did not have enough fuel to reach CCS so we would fly to Medellin for fuel. So we flew 30 mins. west of Bogota to get "fuel". Why we just didn't fly back to BOG remains a mystery. Then flew CCS to MIA
the next morning.
Will do the remaining 3 airlines in late June. Using an AA award DFW-LIM to get Taca Peru,Aces, Saeta. Total cost will be about $2500 in Biz. classs
