LATAM

LATAM Airlines Group is Latin America's largest airline holding company, operating as a full-service carrier across the region and beyond. Formed in 2012 through the merger of Chile's LAN Airlines (founded 1929) and Brazil's TAM, it serves over 140 destinations in 20+ countries with a modern fleet emphasizing efficiency and passenger comfort. Headquartered in Santiago, Chile, its primary hubs are at SCL, GRU (São Paulo), LIM (Lima), and BOG (Bogotá), connecting South America with North America, Europe, and Oceania. LATAM exited the oneworld alliance in 2020 to partner with Delta and now operates independently while maintaining strong bilateral ties. Known for its extensive domestic networks in Brazil, Chile, Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador, plus growing international routes, the airline has earned a 4-Star Skytrax rating—the first for any Latin American carrier—and focuses on sustainability, digital innovation, and premium experiences in business class. With plans to expand to ~410 aircraft by end-2026, LATAM continues to lead regional connectivity and cargo operations.
