LAN Airlines Flight Status
About LAN Airlines
LAN Airlines, based in Chile, operates under the ICAO code LAN and the IATA code LA; its radio callsign is "Lan". On this page you can follow LAN Airlines flights and find the airports it serves.
How to read a LAN Airlines flight number
Every LAN Airlines flight number starts with LA, 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 LAN, and controllers address it as "Lan". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by LAN Airlines 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.
