“These new operations boost both leisure and corporate travel. A customer with business in Campina Grande, for example, can board in the morning with LATAM from São Paulo to Recife and, from there, connect with VOEPASS to their final destination. In the late afternoon, they can fly back to Recife and, from there, to São Paulo, completing the entire trip in a single day,” explains Aline Mafra, LATAM Brazil’s Sales and Marketing Director.
SUSTAINABLE GROWTH OF LATAM’S CONNECTIVITY
Following the Covid-19 pandemic, LATAM has become more efficient and competitive, opening 11 new destinations in Brazil from 2021: Jericoacoara, Juazeiro do Norte, Vitória da Conquista, Petrolina, Presidente Prudente, Montes Claros, Juiz de Fora, Cascavel, Sinop, Caxias do Sul and Passo Fundo. This expansion allowed the airline to reach its record 55 destinations in the country.
In the international market, LATAM is the airline that most connects Brazil with the world, with flights to 90 destinations abroad. In 2023, it inaugurated the Brasilia-Lima, Porto Alegre-Santiago, São Paulo-Los Angeles and São Paulo-Johannesburg routes, and reconnected Brazil with Melbourne (via Santiago) and Caracas (via Lima). Later this year, it will inaugurate the Belo Horizonte-Santiago and Florianópolis-Santiago routes, in addition to starting to connect Brazil with Aruba, Havana and Atlanta (all via Lima).
