Depends. If you fly down to Mexico or Chile crossing los Andes ridge, there are instances where MEA is above FL180 and MORA too. But if you divert to the sides, the MORA will go below FL180 and keep descending to lower levels. This opens the way for us to descent FL180 within 5 minutes, maintain FL180 for another 6-7 minutes and then be able to descend lower.
