Recently heard about LAN:

* LAN Argentina soon to fly to MIA, GRU & MVD. Next year to MAD.
* LAN Colombia very much 'on ice' at the moment.
* LAN to have a hub in MAD (trying to get more info on this)
* 3 new aircraft, for USA, EUR & SWP.
* More daily flights SWP.
* KE & CX Codeshares.
* No current plans for SCL-LAX direct.

Most of the above is rumours, speculation, conjecture, whisperings and half-truths, so don't shoot the messenger if any/all prove to be false.
