About LATAM Airlines Brazil

LATAM Airlines, formerly known as TAM Airlines, is the Brazilian branch of airline conglomerate LATAM Airlines Group. This follows a merger between LAN Airlines and TAM, which was completed in 2012.

The airline company operates from three major hubs. These are São Paulo–Guarulhos International Airport, São Paulo–Congonhas Airport, and Brasília International Airport.

LATAM flies to a number of countries, including Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina, and Chile. On a city basis, LATAM Airlines provides flights to many tourist hot spots around the world, such as Buenos Aires, Frankfurt, Las Vegas, Madrid, and London - and many more.

LATAM Airlines is renowned for two frequent flyer reward schemes. The first is the now-retired Star Alliance (2010-2014), while its replacement program LATAM Pass is still active today. LATAM Pass enables you to redeem your points for a cabin upgrade or membership to the Elite tier of travel.
