Flights

For my last big trip as an international student here in Chile I wanted to make it into Buenos Aires because it is much cheaper to fly from Chile instead of from Boston! When I am in the US and I want to travel by plane I have to book months in advance in order to get a relatively cheap flight with the dates and times I want. Mind you, all of this is in English. This week when I booked my flight to Buenos Aires, LAN offered numerous excursions to different places throughout Latin America. They included airfare, hotel and transportation. It is cheaper to search on LAN if you put the nationality as a Chilean. As a traveller, it is great to see what the airline has to offer for all inclusive trip because in the US I do not get that option through the airline. In order to get an all inclusive trip one must search for it thoroughly on other websites which can then inclusive airfare. I don't find it easy to find inclusive deals on websites of airlines.

  1. Interesting. One-stop-shopping outlet it is with LAN. Do US airlines neither such packages when it comes to international destinations? Any idea why that is, and would you, or people you know, take such a package or prefer to shop around?
