LATAM Airlines Group unveiled a plan that seeks to reinforce cargo connectivity between Europe and the Americas, reports the American Journal of Transportation.
The plan will be implemented during the second half with more frequencies, a more diversified transatlantic network between Europe and strategic US cities, and greater connectivity to Central and South America via New York and Miami.
latam said cargo operators will double their capacity between Europe and the Americas, increasing their weekly frequencies by 85 per cent from seven to 13, that is, a 160 per cent growth compared to pre-pandemic levels (2019).
In addition, new routes will be opened between Europe and the United States that will be served by freighters operated by LATAM Cargo Colombia.
In particular, the itineraries are Amsterdam (AMS), New York (JFK) / Miami (MIA), Bogota (BOG); Amsterdam (AMS), New York (JFK) / Miami (MIA), Viracopos (VCP), Bogota (BOG) and Amsterdam (AMS), Madrid (MAD), New York (JFK)/ Miami (MIA), Bogota (BOG), each one with two weekly frequencies.
With more than 30 options, LATAM's cargo operators will offer the largest number of origin-destination alternatives between Europe and Central and South America, facilitating the carriage of pharmaceuticals, vehicle spare parts, and general cargo, among others.
Said LATAM Cargo CEO Andres Bianchi: 'The growth of our cargo network, coupled with the improvements to our systems and the new distribution channels that make capacity available, reflect the commitment of LATAM and its cargo subsidiaries to offer more and better alternatives.'
