As a direct result of the tragic attack upon the United States this September, all airlines are now facing dramatically increased costs in relation to the introduction of higher levels of security and outrageous insurance costs. Our airline like all others, is not immune from the higher levels of security being introduced and its associated increasing costs.

Therefore, effective on November 1st, 2001, Lan Chile Cargo will introduce a security surcharge on all exports from the USA. A charge of US$0.10 per chargeable kilo with a minimum of US$25.00 will be applicable for all shipments system wide in accordance with company policy. The charge is to be shown in the "Due Carrier Box" on the airway bill.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call Sales Department or Global Account Manager at (305) 874-2777.
