Details on the benefits of this agreement will be shared in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The JV between Delta and LATAM will help grow the market between North and South America, providing significant benefits for much-needed customers. We applaud the DOT for this final approval,&#8221; said Ed Bastian, CEO of Delta Air Lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The DOT&#8217;s approval will kick-start work with Delta to deliver more and better benefits to LATAM and Delta customers, such as more expedited connections, joint mileage accrual in frequent flyer programs, among many others. I am confident that, over time, we will be able to offer the best connections while incorporating a sustainable view of the future,&#8221; said Roberto Alvo, CEO of LATAM Airlines Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/09\/latam-awarded-leading-airline-in-south-america.html\">LATAM awarded \u201cLeading Airline in South America\u201d for seventh consecutive year.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delta and LATAM announced their first agreement in 2019, with the goal of significantly expanding travel options in North and South America and delivering an industry-leading customer experience. Since then, the airlines have achieved a series of milestones including mutual mileage accrual\/redemption and reciprocal passenger benefits; shared terminals at airports including New York (JFK), S\u00e3o Paulo\/Guarulhos and Santiago; and mutual access to 53 Delta Sky Club lounges in the United States and 5 LATAM Lounges in South America, including the new exclusive Delta Sky Club in Los Angeles and the new LATAM Lounge Santiago in Chile, the largest lounge in South America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2020, Delta and LATAM introduced their first codeshare services in South America, and in 2021 expanded to more than 20 routes, plus connections to a wide range of domestic and regional destinations from their hubs in Atlanta, New York and Los Angeles, Santiago, Lima, Bogota and S\u00e3o Paulo, enhancing connectivity between the two regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid
