LATAM Airlines Group recently announced an increase in the number of flights from Santiago de Chile to Los Angeles and Miami.
Starting Oct. 27, 2024, weekly flights from Santiago to Los Angeles will increase from six to seven per week, while flights from Santiago to Miami will rise from 12 to 14 per week by December. In addition, the seasonal route between Santiago and Orlando, Florida, which begins operation in June with two weekly flights, will be extended to operate from December 2024 to March 2025.
This expansion is part of a joint venture between LATAM and Delta Air Lines, which has boosted the airlines’ capacity by 75% in just over a year. This partnership now offers access to more than 300 destinations across South America (including Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay) and North America (in the United States and Canada).
Delta Air Lines will also add a second flight on its Santiago-Atlanta route from Dec. 13, 2024, to Jan. 13, 2025.
"We are very happy to announce this increase in flights to key cities in the United States during the summer season," said Kamal Hadad, Network Director of the LATAM group. "The addition of new weekly flights reinforces the purpose of our agreement with Delta, which allows us to provide a better connection between countries in South and North America, enabling thousands of passengers to reach some of the most significant vacation destinations in the United States."
In a related development, LATAM Airlines Brazil will also increase its operations in October. Flights from Sao Paulo, Brazil to Los Angeles will rise from three to four times weekly, and Sao Paulo to Orlando will see three additional departures, bringing the total to seven flights per week.
