Terremoto in Cile, chiuso l' aeroporto di Santiago
- Autore Discussione belumosi
- Data d'inizio
Basta vedere la differenza fra loro compagnia aerea (di proprietà del neo presidente eletto) e la nostra. Sono di una efficienza disarmante....una volta hanno per sbaglio sbarcato il bagaglio durante uno scalo tecnico..si sono accorti dell'errore prima del mio arrivo a destinazione e mi hanno fatto avere il bagaglio in serata nella mia stanza di albergo..
Sono prussiani..
Non so´se ancora lo fanno ma almeno 15 anni fa prima di atterrare potevi prenotare il transfer apt Santiago centro con i loro minibus
Infatti la LAN si e´fatta la Lan Peru´..Ecuador..ecc
In Cile come in Namibia si sente l' effetto dell' antica emigrazione tedesca.
piccolo OT..Mah...più che altro dei tristemente noti Chicago Boys di Milton Friedman assoldati dall'altrettanto tristemente noto Agusto Pinochet ....c'è da dire che in Cile questa cosa è ancora fotne di grande polemica..da un lato, infatti, è il paese di gran lunga più efficiente di tutto il sudamercia..dall'altro lato questa efficienza è stata pagata con una delle dittature pià sangiuinarie (c'è da dire che anche in Argentina sono stati sanguinari ma quanto ad efficienza..) fine OT...
Ti ricordo che ci sono state dittature altrettanto o più sanguinarie in Argentina, Brasile, Paraguay, Bolivia eccetera.
Senza i Chicago boys il Cile sarebbe ancora un Paese economicamente fallito come l' Argentina.

Quto!!
In Argentina ne hanno ammazzati di piu´e con un risultato molto inferiore
(non parliamo del Brasile...)
aggiungo che in alternativa avevano il Castrismo..
Quoto tutti e due...infatti in Cile il dibattito è molto aperto..però (scusate il catalanismo) meglio lo sviluppo econimico senza dittatura che lo sviluppo economico con la dittatura..

Scheduled operations start to resume at Santiago
By Brendan Sobie
Some scheduled airline services have resumed at Chile's main airport following the devastating earthquake which struck Chile early on 27 February.
Aeropuerto Arturo Merino Benitez in Santiago was re-opened soon after the earthquake to military flights and to some commercial flights which were originally diverted to other Chilean airports. Today several airlines serving Santiago have been able to also operate some regularly scheduled flights.
LAN, which is by far the airport's largest tenant, said in a statement this afternoon that it is now operating a modified domestic and international schedule to and from its Santiago hub. The airline says the modified schedule will continue until at least 4 March and flight operations from 5 March are currently being evaluated with a decision expected later today.
LAN says it currently is not accepting any new bookings on flights through 7 March as its current priority is to accommodate passengers who were originally booked on flights that had to be cancelled. The airline group was forced to suspend all operations at Santiago after the earthquake struck while its operations in other Latin American countries continued to operate normally. LAN is based in Santiago but has affiliate passenger airlines in Argentina, Ecuador and Peru.
LAN says it was also forced to divert 17 flights that were en route to Santiago when the earthquake struck to other airports in Chile, primarily Antofagasta in the unaffected north part of the country. A few of these flights were able to continue to Santiago late in the evening on 27 February while other diverted flights were able to land at Santiago yesterday or earlier today.
Other airlines serving Santiago also announced today the resumption of flights. Colombia's Avianca, for example, says its Bogota-Santiago service will resume this evening with its regularly scheduled flight as well as an extra flight to accommodate passengers that were originally booked on flights that had to be cancelled on 27 and 28 February. But Avianca says Santiago-bound flights for now have to make a stop in Antofagasta to clear customs.
Other foreign carriers, however, have already cancelled all their flights to Santiago for today and will likely not resume services until later this week. American Airlines, for example, earlier cancelled all flights to and from Santiago through 1 March.
IATA says while there was no damage to any of the runways at Aeropuerto Arturo Merino Benitez the airport "did receive damage to its terminal area". IATA is a major sponsor of the FIDAE air show and "Wings of Change" conference, which are scheduled to be held later this month in Santiago. IATA says there is no damage to the FIDAE show grounds and "at this point in time everything remains as originally planned for the FIDAE air show and Wings of Change conference".
While operations at Santiago are expected to slowly to return to normal, the airport in Concepcion, a city about 500km south of Santiago which was much closer to the earthquake's epicentre, remains closed. According to Innovata, Concepcion has frequent LAN service to Santiago as well as several domestic flights by Chile's second carrier, Sky Airline.
