Hello Guys! Welcome to another Flight Report from Santiago to Concepcion aboard in an Airbus A320 of LATAM!
The flight cost me $23 USD ($23000CLP)! Absolutely cheap, it was a promotion of LATAM! My flight was LA3 an it departs on Friday 19/01 at 06:25AM.
I woke up at 04:15AM, left home at 04:30Am and arrived close to 05:00AM.
The Airport wasn't very busy. :)
The security control was absolutely fast because there wasn't many people at the Airport at this hours!
Passed the security control, was time to go to the boarding gate!
My gate was the 25. :)
My flight status…
My A320 coming to the gate! :)
And finally my A320 was ready for boarding! :)
My Aircraft today was an Airbus A320-233 with the registraion of CC-COK, is one of the oldest A320 of the LATAM fleet making his first flight in July 2001 with LAN Chile, in 2008 got transfered to LAN Argentina, renamed as LV-BTM, in 2018 returned to LATAM Chile, getting his old registration back and fly till nowadays. Almost 23 years of Service! Unfortunately LATAM probably will retire this aircraft in the next couple of months/years :(. It has a configuration of 168 seats.
Another view of CC-COK. :)
And for second consecutive flight I got a plane with the old LAN interior…
As I said in the Aircraft description, this aircraft probably will not be retrofited, it will be retired by LATAM in the next couple of months or years! :(
My seat: 5A. :)
Legroom was okay for me. :)
This was the old light system of this plane…
The armrest of my seat was broken and I found this sticker from a maintenance that was carried out on this seat back in June 2008!
These old seats have a very big table. :)
The cabin looks very old, but incredibly very clean! Good job LATAM! :)
And the best part obviously, the old soft comfortable seats! :) Only 3 A320 remaining with this interior: CC-BLA, CC-COK and CC-COL and probably all of them will be retired from the fleet in a not very distant future. :(
Oh! Thats me! :)
The boarding was almost finishing and the flight was very busy!!!
Finally when boarding finished the crew gave me a gift with a message of luck to follow my dream to be a pilot! :)
We were ready to depart, and we started the pushback very punctual! :)
Once we started the pushback the cabin lights got turned off! :)
We finally started the taxi!
A Boeing B737-200 ex DAP Mineral Airways waiting in this exactly point to be scrapped since 2020!
And we finally departed! :)
Aww yesss!!! We finally got LATAM Play in the older cabins!!! :)
It was snack time and first the cabin crew gave me chocolate popcorn…
And then they gave me a glass with mineral water and a coffee with sugar and cream! Nothing bad to be in Economy and Free!
As you can see, the flight was very busy, more than 95% of occupation in this flight!
Me at CC-COK toilet!
The galley of this A320. There are still LAN logos in the galley…
The view of the cabin of CC-COK… :)
CC-COK only has 28 rows of seats, the A320 with the newest standard have 30 rows…
We finally started the descent!
The view of Penco and Lirquen… :)
LATAM Play worked perfectly! I watched a Simpsons episode but not complete because its a very short flight, 8/10 for Entertainment!
We finally arrived in Concepcion Carriel Sur Airport! :) As you can see in the photo, the flight was absolutely busy, almost overbooked!
Passengers finally left the plane and the cabin and seats looked very pretty and clean! :)
Finally I visited the cockpit of this A320! :)
Saying goofbye to CC-COK, for the service and for the perfect flight! :)
CC-COK was returning to Santiago as LA202…
The flight was perfect! 1. The Cabin looked pretty clean and with the comfortable old seats! 2. The service was 10/10 with the gift! LATAM Play worked 100%! 4. The access and efficency in both airports was 10/10, nothing more to say! Good job LATAM! :)

Yet another pro report from our Chilean correspondent! I like that!
Sale mucho más barato andar en avión que en bus en estos días!!
I miss it... a little bit.
Guaraná!! Mi favorita!! Cuando voy a Brasil casi no tomo otra cosa!! ?
Nice lanyard! I was in Rancagua the other day and got a Dexter's Lab lanyard for one of my analogue cameras. My sister and I were much like Dexter and Dee Dee when we were little. ?
Yo creo que ese avión ya echó raíces! ?
That's good news! ?
Lo justo y necesario para llegar vivo a CCP. Pero por ser desayuno podría haber una cosita más sustanciosa... digo. Bueno, no voy a pecar de malagradecido.
Y todos con tuto.
Me tomé la libertad de ponerle un antifaz a la auxiliar de vuelo. Aunque no lo creas, hemos recibido quejas por otros reportes porque hay personas a las que no les gusta que se publique su cara en internet. Una vez escribió una señora muy enojada de África!
A perfect flight, indeed. And a great report! ?
Que tengas un excelente año, Mariano!! Con muchos vuelos!! ✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️
