In October, LATAM Group increased its consolidated capacity, measured in available seat-kilometers (ASK), by 14.8% compared to the same month in 2023. This increase was primarily driven by a 16.5% growth in international services and a 14.6% expansion in domestic operations by LATAM Airlines Brazil. The domestic boost was attributed to the launch of three new routes and the reopening of Porto Alegre airport in October, which facilitated the gradual restoration of flights to and from the airport.
Consolidated traffic, measured in revenue passenger-kilometers (RPK), also saw a 14.9% increase year-over-year. As a result, the consolidated load factor reached 85.7%.
In October, LATAM transported around 7.2 million passengers, reflecting an 11.1% increase compared to the same month last year. Year-to-date, the group has transported 67.7 million passengers, reflecting a 12.3% increase compared to the same period in 2023.
