Delta Golf,
That information I have from a very good friend who has finished the type rating check yesterday.

LAN Airlines (Chile) is going to provide accommodation until the end of the line training.

For what I can see from the pilots recruited from Argentina most of them have very low experience.

LAN Peru was recruiting some Spanish but they are having problems to get the license in Peru.
So I would say LAN Peru is not going to recruit Pilots out of the Pacto Andino in the future unless LP settles the problem with the Pilots Union.

LAN Argentina was trying to recruit 4 LAN Chile Senior FO to become Captains in Argentina until the own Argentinians have enough experience to get the command, but that was not approved by the Authority.
That was two or three years ago, and LAN Argentina has not grown at all during that period.

Besides, time to command in LAN Chile can not be shorter than 6 years at this moment.
