On this occasion, the company announced the incorporation of two destinations to its network of cargo flights to meet the needs of its customers.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Both the city of Los Angeles (USA) and Mexico City (Mexico) were added to the LATAM Cargo network because they are relevant markets for its clients. They will form part of the Santiago (Chile) \u2013 Lima (Peru) \u2013 Los Angeles (USA) \u2013 Mexico City (Mexico) \u2013 Lima \u2013 Santiago route. With two weekly frequencies, it will support the transport of perishables to the United States and will promote the supply of electronics, among other products, from USA and Mexico to South America.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThe current environment is stressing supply chains across the globe. We want to prove our clients that we remain committed to their success. This new freighter operation replaces the passenger capacity that was critical to key clients. As strategic partners, we moved swiftly to offer them a new alternative and we intend to continue doing so in the markets that require it\u201d, commented Andr\u00e9s Bianchi, CEO of the LATAM Cargo Group.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Specifically, LATAM Cargo will offer mango exporters in Peru and salmon exporters in Chile a greater transportation capacity to the West Coast of the United States, an area known for being one of the main centers of salmon consumption in the country. In addition, Los Angeles offers a better connectivity to the Asian continent, a market that has increased its demand in recent years becoming a relevant destination for salmon.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">On the other hand, the incorporation of Mexico into the freighter network will favor exporters of electronic products that want to enter South America.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Previous announcements<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>LATAM Cargo Group has managed to satisfy its clients\u2019 demand in their most relevant markets, protecting capacity for the Latin American export and import markets. On one hand, its freighter capacity between Santiago (Chile) and Miami (USA) increased fivefold in order to offer salmon exporters a robust solution. On the other, capacity between Europe and South America was incremented 20%, adding up to a total of 6 weekly frequencies that will allow the transportation of automotive spare parts, general cargo and medicines to South America, as well as transportation of perishable products to Europe. In addition, frequencies between Miami and South America were increased by almost 15%, totaling 26 frequencies each week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LATAM Group announced new adjustments to its itinerary in order to deliver greater capacity in the relevant markets of its clients.
