Welcome to the jungle. You may not find any cloud forests or spider monkeys on board your LACSA flights, but this Costa Rican carrier comes from a world of verdant mountains, soaring volcanoes, and all manner of extreme sports. Is kicking back at an eco-chic resort considered extreme these days? Hey, you thought about that jungle trek for half a second! Anyway, this national airline has changed hands a few times since it started in 1945, so most people know it as Avianca Costa Rica now. Don't worry: No one will look at you funny if you still call it LACSA while you're checking out its domestic and international destinations in North, South, and Central America. As long as you're not heading to Miami when you meant to go to Caracas, everything is cool.
LifeMiles
Nothing makes you feel more alive than climbing a volcano. LACSA Air's frequent-flyer program won't be able to help you sidestep any lava – keep watching those toes – but it'll certainly get you to the summit without any panic attacks about budget stuff. Created by merging AviancaPlus and TACA'S Distancia, this uber-epic rewards program lets you earn one point per dollar on pretty much every purchase you make. Then, once you've racked up enough miles to put even the most seasoned business traveler to shame, you'll be able to transform the points into getaway fantasies like free flights, cabin upgrades, and car rentals. Plus, if you're in the market for a new pair of climbing shoes, you can browse the items in the program's reward catalog. Hang on. Is that a spa gift certificate over there? See you later, new shoes.
