The commercial alliance between LATAM and Delta expanded its initial geographic footprint—which covered Chile, Brazil, Peru, and Colombia—by incorporating Ecuador in 2024 and Argentina in 2025. The joint agreement also includes reciprocal loyalty benefits and cargo integration. Moving forward, LATAM’s upcoming Airbus A321XLR fleet and Delta’s ongoing fleet renewal will support potential expansion into new nonstop routes and additional frequencies.
