LATAM and Delta Airlines sign reciprocal loyalty programme agreement

LATAM Airlines has signed a loyalty program agreement with Delta that will enable reciprocal frequent flyer benefits, starting April 1, 2020.  

Once the agreement is implemented, LATAM Pass members will be able to accrue and redeem* miles on Delta flights across its network of over 300 destinations worldwide. Likewise, Delta SkyMiles members will be able to earn and use miles on LATAM flights to 145 destinations in 26 countries across five continents. 

In a statement by the South American firm it also said that the carriers are also working to expand reciprocal lounge access benefits to more airports in the Americas and establish mutual top tier recognition during the first half of 2020.

“With this frequent flyer agreement and codeshares, LATAM and its affiliates can now offer customers some of the first tangible benefits that the framework agreement with Delta promises to deliver,” said Roberto Alvo, chief commercial officer, for LATAM Airlines 

LATAM Airlines Brazil has also signed a codeshare agreement with Delta that will come into effect during the first half of 2020, subject to regulatory approval. 

LATAM’s statement said that these moves are part of ongoing work to implement the framework agreement announced by LATAM and Delta in September 2019, which includes a proposed strategic alliance of the carriers’ route networks.
