Aerolane Flight Status

About Aerolane

Aerolane, based in Ecuador, operates under the ICAO code LNE and the IATA code XL; its radio callsign is "Lan Ecuador". On this page you can follow Aerolane flights and find the airports it serves.

How to read a Aerolane flight number

Every Aerolane flight number starts with XL, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix LNE, and controllers address it as "Lan Ecuador". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Aerolane and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.

What do XL and LNE mean on Aerolane flights?

They are two prefixes for the same airline. XL is the IATA code you see on tickets; LNE is the ICAO code used in flight plans and by air traffic control.
