I have probably flown 100,000 miles on Taca in the last two years, and ALL of those miles have been regional in Central America. I I only got a Distancia (Frequent Flyer) card, mid year last year, or I would probably have at least 100k in total miles.

Taca has the newest fleet in the Americas, with Airbus 320 and 321's, and their planes are clean and normally well kept, and the crews usually friendly. I was probably one of the worlds most satisfied customers until about a month ago. Until that time I normally received an upgrade on at least one leg of all of my round trip flights. As a Silver Frequent Flyer I really enjoyed this, as it is rare that anyone under plattinum gets such priveledges on other airlines. With Taca I could always count on an upgrade when I got to the airport if Business Class was not full. (I generaly fly minimum once a month and sometimes every two weeks. Taca changed their upgrade process to some arcane system based on fare types... Well, I can not complain, they are only getting more in line with the industry, and I still manage to snag one every now and then.
