Traveling to La Serena (1Dec93)
(from CTIO, NOAO Newsletter No. 36, 1 December 1993)

On a few occasions observers traveling by air from Santiago to La
Serena have had trouble with the Chilean airline, National, in that
they have not honored reservations made in Santiago. We want to
encourage passengers to travel by bus or use Ladeco, which allows them
to make arrangements and confirmations through their own travel agency.
In exceptional cases, when international connections require a
passenger to take a National flight, we will purchase the ticket for
him/her and it will be charged to his/her CTIO bill. This cost must be
reimbursed at the end of the run. Consequently the traveler requesting
the ticket must bring enough funds to cover the fare and other expenses
that might be incurred.
