LATAM Airlines Group reported significant growth in its operations during 2024, transporting 82 million passengers, an 11% increase compared to 2023. According to the company, this result represents the highest number of passengers transported in its history.
In the Spanish-speaking domestic markets (Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru), LATAM Airlines transported 31.11 million passengers in 2024, an 11.1% increase over 2023. In the Brazilian domestic market, it carried 34.84 million passengers (+5.6%). The international segment saw the highest growth, with 16.06 million passengers transported (+24.3%).

This growth was accompanied by a 10.9% rise in the group's consolidated capacity, measured in available seat-kilometers (ASK). LATAM attributes this increase mainly to a 16.1% growth in its international offering.
Among the new routes inaugurated were flights from Santiago de Chile to Bariloche, Recife, and Punta del Este, and from Lima to Montego Bay and Rosario. These connections strengthen the company’s international network and contribute to the annual consolidated capacity growth of 15.1% compared to 2023.
LATAM’s consolidated load factor in December reached 84.8%, while the annual figure stood at 84.3%, surpassing the levels recorded in 2023 by 1.2 percentage points.
In the cargo segment, the LATAM group also experienced significant growth. Capacity, measured in available ton-kilometers (ATK), increased by 11.8% in December, reaching a total of 747 million available ton-kilometers.
The increase in capacity and the opening of new international routes align with LATAM’s updated forecasts from October, consolidating a year of growth in both passenger and cargo operations.
