LATAM Airlines will have a progressive increase of more than 30% in the volume of Brazil-Chile flights between May and July, compared to the operation at the beginning of 2024.
The increases are scheduled to expand flights to Santiago from São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Florianópolis, Porto Alegre and Belo Horizonte, in addition to the new route from Brasilia.
“LATAM is the airline that most connects Brazil with the world, with its own flights from the country to 90 airports abroad and Santiago is one of the most popular destinations. We also have the advantage of offering a network that caters to travelers interested in flying to Chile from various regions of Brazil, and not just from the Rio-São Paulo hub,” commented Aline Mafra, LATAM Brazil’s Sales and Marketing Director.
