LATAM is painting a series of aircraft in the colors of the national flags of the South American countries where its subsidiaries operate domestic flights.
The five specially painted aircraft will be unveiled throughout the year, starting with LATAM Airlines Brazil's A320neo aircraft in shades of green and yellow that debuted earlier this week.
Designed at the Sao Carlos base in Sao Paulo, the largest maintenance center of the LATAM Airlines group, the aircraft features the existing LATAM logo but with modified colors and tail fin.
This plane will be followed by planes inspired by the colors of the flags of Colombia, Chile, Peru and finally, Ecuador.
Martin St. George, vice president of commercial and marketing at LATAM Airlines Group, commented:
“Through this initiative, the group's companies seek to further deepen ties with each of the territories where they operate, highlighting the pride of origin of all the collaborators who mobilize the LATAM Airlines group and reinforcing the connectivity that the group offers to people in their countries, in the region and in the world.
“The LATAM Airlines group is made up of a composition of the cultures of South America, diversity is an essential part of the group and this initiative is a way to honor and embrace differences, because we know that it is a great wealth of the region. .”
The airline group currently has 332 passenger aircraft in its fleet, made up of 56 Boeing aircraft (models 767, 777 and 787) and 256 Airbus aircraft (models A319, A320, A320neo, A321 and A321neo).
We recently traveled with LATAM on the airline's inaugural route from London Heathrow to Lima in Peru, although the service (which launched in December 2023) has since been suspended.
