Latam Airlines Colombia is preparing for the summer by strengthening its international connectivity, especially to Europe with its Bogotá – Madrid route and to the United States, from Bogotá to Orlando, Bogotá-New York and Bogotá-Miami. And with Delta the routes Bogotá-Atlanta, Bogotá-New York and Cartagena-Atlanta, this was confirmed by the airline to REPORTUR.co.
“Looking ahead to the summer season, from Latam we are going to strengthen our international connectivity. On July 3, operation of our Bogotá-Madrid route will begin, where we seek to connect Colombia with the gateway for Latin Americans to the European continent. It will be a daily flight with capacity for 247 passengers that will operate at night,” the company told this newspaper.
As for the United States and through a Joint Venture with Delta Airlines, it will strengthen Colombia’s connection with the North American country. “Our Bogotá-Orlando, Bogotá-New York and Bogotá-Miami routes will be in effect for the summer season. Likewise, Delta offers daily flights between Bogotá and Atlanta and Bogotá and New York and since December 2023 it operates from Cartagena to its hub in Atlanta,” Latam told REPORTUR.co.
Likewise, the company highlighted the humanization of its service and the personalization of attention, “an excellent on-board service that includes food, Wi-Fi on board on our domestic flights (with free and paid options) and entertainment through Latam Play , with an offer of more than 170 films. In addition, our operation incorporates sustainable elements that are decisive in achieving passenger preference,” the company commented.
As reported REPORTUR.co, Latam is standing up to Avianca where it hurts: since last week it launched an advertising campaign aimed at its Spanish clients to fly between Bogotá and Madrid, or vice versa, with discounts of 20 percent on normal fares. The route was, until now, the subject of direct competition between Iberia and Avianca, with the presence, also, of Air Europa. (Latam stands up to Avianca with a big discount on the Bogotá-Madrid flight).
