Review of LATAM flight from Pereira to Bogota in Economy

Hello Everyone.
This is short trip report of a Colombian domestic flight in LATAM Colombia, from Pereira to Bogota.
Due to Avianca`s pilot`s strike, my flight from Cali to Bogota was moved and I had an international connection to catch, therefore the best option was travelling by road to Pereira which takes a little less than 3 hours from Cali, the city I live and then taking a LATAM`s flight to Bogota.
Pereira`s Airport is pretty basic and actually not the best airport I have been to.

After security check there is like an open bridge that connects boarding rooms which is great for plane spotting sadly there were not planes at the apron.

I got into Avianca`s VIP lounge very basic of course as well as very small but again with great open windows allowing to see planes landing and taking off.

After a good coffee I went to the boarding room. I took some pics from the planes that were there at the moment.

Boarding was chaotic and the plane felt very cramped, seats were dirty and legroom was poor, and I am not a tall person and it felt really unconfortable.

Boarding was completed, cross check, safety instructions were shown in the overhead monitors. And we were ready to take off. This flight gave me one of the best views I have ever had from Colombia.

This is a very short flight and the BOB service was not announced, however a couple of pax bought some wine. Here is the MERCADO Latam menu. Some other views from the flight

Latam provides Latam Entertaiment app, I wanted to try it but it did not work during the flight.

Descent started very soon and we were ready to land in a cloudy and very cold afeternoon at El Dorado`s airport

Some plane spotting during our taxiing to the terminal. El Dorado was empty that day as half of Avianca`s operations were cancelled.

Time to deboard and walk to the baggage claim
