However, on other rountrips to different countries, like Chile, or MAD to SCL, the upg list is what one would expect: 1-2 signatures, 3 or 4 blacks, 3-4 platinum and 8 to 10 gold tier. (That's how it's supposed to be, no the other way around lol)

I think LATAM Brazil is trying to lower the amount of top tier flyers here.
