Hola! I've recently discovered a much lower cost airline that flies from the U.S. (Miami, L.A., N.Y., Orlando and D.C.) to/from Buenos Aires (via Panama City). Their fares are half (at Economy level, and around a quarter to a third less for Business) of the quotes for Delta, American, United and Aerolineas!!! And, like, Delta, they are dog-friendly (so I can have an alternative to Delta for my little Peckie to be in the cabin with me - - no cargo, ever, ever for him!). Additionally, Copa (which is Panamanian) is a 'sister' airline to Continental and mileage is transferable. J COPA AIRLINES - - www.copaair.com I ran a random quote to give everyone an idea on their prices and schedules (9/4-9/18). But of course, every trip will be different. From: New York, JFK To: Buenos Aires, EZE Depart: NY @ 6:17am Arrive Stop-over: Panama City @ 10:32am Depart Stop-over: Panama City @ 11:56am Arrive: Buenos Aires @ 9:03pm Economy: $338.00 Flexible Elite: $526.00 Executive: $1,324.00 From: Buenos Aires, EZE To: New York, JFK Depart: Buenos Aires @ 12:05pm Arrive Stop-over: Panama City @ 5:30pm Depart Stop-over: Panama City @ 8:22pm Arrive: New York @ 2:27am Economy: $338.00 Flexible Elite: $2,329.00 Executive: $2,673.00 Taxes and surcharges might run up to almost $500.00 on the more expensive flights, but obvious less on Economy. So what's the difference between Economy.and everything else? Their website provides the same great info that most major carriers do today: Allows you to print your boarding pass at home. Lists airfare specials they're having. Gives extensive details on baggage allowance so you know exactly how much you bring and where you can bring it as allowances for different countries and airlines vary.

Happy flying! Loreen _______________________________________________ Tango-L mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/tango-l
