Meanwhile the additional services into Bogota and Lima will boost the Company\u2019s position in two strategic import markets.<\/p>\n<p>LATAM Cargo Colombia plans to add 12 frequencies between Bogota and Miami and, as a consequence, the Company is expected to double its operations between Colombia and the Unites States. Import operations into Colombia will also expand as the Company will increase its freighter operations between Miami and Bogota to eight flights per week. The expansion in Colombia will take place gradually between September and December.<\/p>\n<p>LATAM Cargo will also expand its operations into Peru significantly. In September, the Company will initiate freighter service from Miami to Lima with two flights per week. Additionally, in December LATAM Airlines Peru will upgrade its passenger service from Madrid to Lima from Boeing 767 to Boeing 787-9 aircraft, tripling its cargo capacity.<\/p>\n<p>The growth of freighter operations will be possible thanks to the addition of two Boeing 767-300BCF, bringing LATAM Cargo Group\u2019s fleet to 11 aircraft. While the first one joined LATAM Cargo Colombia&#8217;s fleet in July of this year, the second one is expected to start operations in December 2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe expansion into Colombia and Peru is fully\u00a0aligned with LATAM Cargo Group\u2019s long-term network strategy.
