South America.
You should be there!

[[image - outline of South America]]

It's the land where the American dollar goes farther and where like the opposite of a King Midas, everything you touch seems to be half the price you'd expect to pay.

From the thick green jungles of the Amazon to the thin blue mountain air high in the Andes. From noisy Indian Markets to tranquil stretches of palm fringed beach.

You should be there. And Braniff can make it happen.

We know the hotels, the restaurants, the casinos, and the beaches. We even know when and where the Marlin are running.

In short, we know South America like the back of our hand. We ought to, we've been flying there and back for a very long time.
