A Latam crew member at the Trujillo airport singled me out (racism??) and falsely claimed that my carry-on bag was too big and needed to be checked. Clearly it is not. It is specified as carry-on sized bag and I carried it on my trip into Peru without any problems. It was comparable in size to everyone else's bag around me. But, I was not about to get into an argument at the airport in a foreign country and, thus risk my safety or jeopardize my journey home to the States. So, I checked it begrudgingly. In Lima, my seat number was changed and I was never notified. The actual crew on the airplanes were nice. The movie selection was good but needs closed captioning in English. The food was disgusting.
The whole service did very well.. excellent job…
Let us take our carry on with us on the plane without paying an extra fees of $40
Bigger cups for coffee ☕️, Dixie cups are to small & easily knock over .
Latam never said that I needed a PCR test 24 hours prior to traveling. I got an email saying “72 hours”. I had to leave the airport in Santiago, pay $45 for a taxi and pay $50 for a rapid test and then rush back to the airport. The Santiago flight left late and I lost my JFK connection to SFO. Alaska air couldn’t help. I had to buy a new ticket
I booked the flight through budgetair.com and paid for one checked bag. When I went to LATAM gate at the airport, they told me they had no record of my purchasing a checked bag and would need to charge me. Budgetair insisted I had paid for a checked bag and LATAM insisted I had not and would need to pay again. Not sure if the issue is with budgetair or LATAM or both
There are 3 reasons to fly a different airline and 1 to fly this one. Cons 1. Getting off the plane they row by row but you cannot stand up before. It took nearly 3x the time and people that are slower that normally wait were being assisted by flight attendant so we all sat and watched. 2. we could NOT use phones while waiting to get off plane as they claimed they were fueling ... That is 7 year old fears. 3. They don't board in any logical way so just a complete mess. Pro 1. Clean plane
Pros: "Nothing as we could not take the flight."
Cons: "Allowing the option to change your ticket date, but failing all debit and credit cards payments offered, actually means that they are not allowing flight changes due to COVID related issues like they say they do. We had to book new tickets with another airline to get home."

Electronic check in system was not working twice, perhaps due to international minors, had to wait in line in order to check in.

As a result, we had to exit the secured area in Rio to go check in manually again for our connection and then go through security and customs again."

Would no recognized any of the promises nor the inconveniences of the other flights and the promises. (In Lima all was denied by the land people but they kept on sending us from one person to another for over 3 hours until the final minute when all passengers where on board they said they could not do anything).
