Horse Latitudes

Lan Horse TransportChristian Ureta

   Counting polo ponies is more fun than counting sheep, especially aboard a LAN B777 freighters from Miami to Madrid.
   Fifty polo ponies from Argentina traveled to participate in the Polo Summer Season in Sotogrande, Spain.
   Specially equipped stalls were built for their transport, fulfilling all the special requirements for this type of operation.
   Cristian Ureta, CEO of LAN CARGO, affiliate of LATAM Airlines Group, points out that the airline is not just for people.
   "We are very pleased that we were chosen for this shipment and have transported giraffes, rhinoceroses, elephants, dolphins and even wallabies,” Ureta said.
   Someone mentioned that moving 50 ponies is a lot of horsing around and Ureta, not missing a beat, replied:
   “Actually our triple seven could have moved 78, no sweat.”
