LATAM Colombia: A Guide to the Country's Second Airline

History and positioning

The airline descends from the LATAM group's acquisition of Aires, later rebranded with its current name: a path similar to that of other national subsidiaries of the group in South America, designed to strengthen local presence without fully overlapping with the main LATAM Brasil or LATAM Chile brand.

Routes and network

The network consists mostly of 54 domestic routes and 12 international ones, a balance that reflects the airline's role as a Colombian regional connector rather than a long-haul carrier: the LATAM group's intercontinental links are in fact operated mainly under the main brand.

The fleet

With a fleet of about 36 dedicated aircraft, mainly from the Airbus A320 family, LATAM Colombia covers the needs of domestic and regional traffic without using widebody aircraft of its own.

Fares and baggage

Fare policies follow the fare-family structure common to the whole LATAM group, with different levels of included baggage and flexibility: it is worth checking which fare level you are buying, because the differences between one level and another can be substantial.

LATAM Colombia is an efficient choice for getting between Bogotá and second-tier Colombian cities or for the nearest regional links, less suitable for those looking for the group's broader intercontinental network, which runs rather through LATAM Brasil or Chile. A practical tip: always check which LATAM group subsidiary actually operates your flight, because included baggage and change policies can vary slightly from one country to another within the same group.
