ok, thanks!
I signed up for it and it works. But can anybody figure out where the award redemtion chart, if there is one on the lan site, is located?
I am trying to figure out how much an award flight would cost in lanpass kilometers, because I really have no idea how much they are worth. For example: Round trip from Chicago to Santigo?
thanks

You can't transfer into Starpoints, but you can do starpoints to LanPass.
I know you can transfer LP kms into HHonors, though. It's not worth it !
The 5K + cash option is considered the best thing Lanpass offers. When they have those promos I usually take advantage of them !

Thanks to the OP. Useful for everyone in the households. Now what's the pet rabbit's last name?

I thought I'd post this in MilesBuzz so it would get more views. LAN is offering 5,000 kilometers for opening a frequent flyer account with them by Dec 31. There is no requirement to take a flight to earn the bonus. The offer also reports that if you update your account information you will get the 5,000 kilometer bonus, although there's no way to do that from the link. Here's the link:
http://www.lan.com/promociones/data/...cion_5000.html
http://www.lan.com/promociones/data/...cion_5000.html
the 5000 km. bonus ?

Btw, I called LP and they notified me that updates to current accounts doesn't earn 5,000 kms, only for new enrollments prior to Dec. 31st. They claim it's a misprint in the english version website (which is the only website that contains the wording of update your account information).
And even though it's a misprint, they stick to the T&C which states that the bonus is for new memberships.

As said above, no. The exception, not to be counted upon in most circumstances, is if you consider it lucky to have to get reaccomodated on alternative route/carrier. (Then getting rebooked in a mileage earning inventory on another carrier has happened.)
