Chile's dominant airline LAN said on Monday its passenger traffic rose 7.8 percent in April compared with the same month last year.
The company said international passenger traffic rose 7.0 percent during the month while domestic traffic in Chile increased by 13.1 percent. International traffic accounted for 87 percent of total passenger traffic.
LAN, which has affiliates in Ecuador, Peru and Argentina, accounts for more than half of Chile's international passenger traffic and nearly three-quarters of its domestic traffic.
