“We are very pleased with the new route between Miami and Medellin announced by LATAM Airlines Colombia, one of Colombia’s main financial, industrial and commercial hubs. At the same time, LATAM Airlines Peru’s service between Lima and Delta’s main hub in Atlanta also reinforces our joint commitment to deliver more and better connectivity options for customers,” said Martin St. George, LATAM Airlines Group Commercial Vice President.
The strategic JV agreement between the LATAM group and Delta has resulted in the best connectivity networks in the industry, linking the more than 120 South American destinations served by the LATAM group with the more than 200 North American destinations served by Delta.
