SCL
Has anyone flown back from SCL yet on the new BA service and can let me know whether BA use the LATAM premium check in area for Business and First, and whether they are using the LATAM lounge or Admirals Club?

BA eligible pax have access to the AAAC, the LAN&TAM VIP Lounge is operated by a third party and, as far as I know, not available to BA customers as per the 1W policy.
Please ignore in light of more accurate and informed information from C-W-S

It's definitely the LATAM VIP lounge, use the lift to level 4 after the first duty free shop., I was there a few hours ago. For departures, I am not yet sure, I could see the BA desks, desk 35 and thereabouts, but no indicator of whether the LATAM premium wing, a bit like T5's First Wing, is available. I will find out in a few days, and I will do a New Routes guide shortly.
It's only third party in the sense that BaxterStorey run CCR.

From c-w-s's comments it sounds like it will be same situation as Iberia, with the check-in desks in the main departure area, but after check-in you can go upstairs, past the LATAM priority check-in area, and use the priority immigration and security area, which then takes you straight to the LATAM lounge entrance.

As Contador states about IB checkin, I fly AA out of SCL regularly and check-in at the AA counter and then go upstairs to use the security check point next to LATAM premium check-in which takes you right to the LATAM lounge.
