The ramp sure looks empty without the likes of Lapa, Dinar, LAER and Austral as we knew it. All we have is the Aerolineas-Austral conglomerate, American Falcon and the skeleton fleet of Southern Winds. No more 737-700s, DC-9s, ATR-42s, CRJ-200s and Dash 8s. I hope the market becomes more competitive again to prevent Aerolineas-Austral monopolizing air travel in Argentina (keeping fares too high), and that Lapa and Dinar return to the scene to provide us with choice when we travel.
