Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts will be entering into a further key partnership from February 2008 with LAN Airlines, the largest South American airline based in Santiago de Chile. This makes LAN Airlines the international hotel chain’s 16th airline partner.
One of the two South American hotels of Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts, the Swissôtel Lima, Peru already has a long-standing and successful partnership with LAN. The clear focus of the South American airline’s route network lies on flights within South America as well as between South American and the US. Extending the partnership to cover the entire hotel chain, which currently encompasses 25 deluxe hotels in 16 countries around the world, is designed to open up and ensure coverage of markets in South America.
Stephanie Hilgers, Director Partner Marketing at Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts on the new partnership: “South America is a key market with growing potential. We are delighted that we are now also able to welcome a further airline partner at Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts for this destination, and together with LAN Airlines view this development as a clear expression of the respect and importance which we attach to our South American guests.”
