LATAM is Latin America’s largest airline company when you consider all of its subsidiaries. And although its history can be traced back to the early 20th century, the collective holding company was established in 2012 as a result of LAN’s takeover of TAM Airlines.

Headquartered in Santiago, Chile, this company actually consists of 6 regional subsidiaries: LATAM Brasil, LATAM Colombia, LATAM Ecuador, LATAM Express, LATAM Paraguay, and LATAM Peru.

As a former member of Oneworld from 2000 to 2020, this full-service airline offers much-needed connectivity to numerous continents and countries around the world.

LATAM’s frequent flyer program, LATAM Pass, offers a seamless way to accumulate and spend rewards, and this guide will be dedicated to walking you through how to get the best value when spending your miles.

The Pros and Cons of LATAM Pass Miles

Here are the biggest benefits of LATAM Pass miles:

Open-jaws are allowed on redemption bookings
Stopovers are allowed on all redemption bookings as long as none of the itinerary’s segments are operated by Iberia
LATAM Pass miles expire after 3 calendar years and can be extended
LATAM Pass does not pass on fuel surcharges for the most part

Here are the biggest drawbacks of LATAM Pass miles:

Ridiculously expensive pricing for LATAM flights
LATAM Pass’s only transfer partner is Marriott Bonvoy
LATAM Pass miles can only be extended by flying on a LATAM-operated flight and earning at least 1 mile on that flight
There are booking fees when reservations are made over the phone
Cancellation and change fees are significant

Using Your LATAM Pass Miles

LATAM uses 2 different pricing strategies for award flights — one strategy for LATAM-operated flights and another strategy for partner-operated flights.

As you’ll find out below, both of these structures can be frustrating and/or misleading.

LATAM Award Charts

For its own flights, LATAM doesn’t publish an award chart — this inconvenience is compounded by the fact that LATAM’s award pricing on its own metal is incredibly bad.

For example, a nonstop flight between Los Angeles (LAX) and Santiago (SCL) in LATAM business class, which is bookable with 95,000 Delta SkyMiles, costs a mind-boggling 283,700 LATAM Pass miles. We’ll take a hard pass on that.

So the bad news is that even if you wanted to redeem LATAM Pass miles for LATAM-operated flights, there’s no way to find out how much your award ticket will cost unless you actually perform a search. And even then, the price you’ll see will most likely astound you (in a negative way).

Airline Partners Award Charts

The award pricing for partner-operated flights is milder than the general award pricing for LATAM-operated flights, which is a plus.

But one of the single-most frustrating quirks of LATAM Pass is how difficult it is to locate LATAM’s partner award chart on LATAM’s U.S. website.

Once you locate an accurate chart, you should find consistent prices when searching for partner award flights.

LATAM employs a region-based partner award chart as shown below:

In addition to travel on LATAM, you can redeem LATAM Pass miles for travel on the following partner airlines:

Alaska Airlines
Austrian Airlines
British Airways
Cathay Pacific
Delta Air Lines
Finnair
Iberia
Japan Airlines
Lufthansa
Malaysia Airlines
Qantas
Qatar Airways
Royal Jordanian
SWISS
S7 Airlines

Awards Bookable Online vs. Phone

LATAM Pass’s online award search isn’t capable of showing flights on all airlines — you should be able to book Delta, Qantas, and Qatar Airways flights online, but for other partners, you’ll have a hard time getting availability to show up.

In the case where you can’t get availability to show up, give the contact center a call at 866-435-9526.

Keep in mind that for tickets booked over the phone or at a physical office, there’s a $25 service fee per ticket.

Also, it’s not possible to check a ticket’s total taxes and fees without the requisite miles in your account, so that’s yet another reason why you’d want to call the contact center.

Award Redemption Rules

When you redeem miles for an award ticket, your ticket is valid for 1 year after the date of issuance.

One-way or round-trip tickets are both permitted when using miles. Open jaws are also permitted as long as the open jaw occurs wholly within the same zone. For open jaws, here are the award zones:

Caribbean — Aruba, Cancun, Havana, Punta Cana
North America — Canada, Mexico, United States
South America I — Argentina, Chile, Uruguay
South America II — Brazil, Bolivia, Peru
South America III — Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela

If your award ticket is booked within 90 to 120 days of departure, there’s a redemption fee assessed per segment per passenger:

For domestic flights within Argentina (within 90 days of departure) — 210 ARS one-way (420 ARS round-trip)
For domestic flights within Brazil (within 90 days of departure) — R$17 one-way (R$34 round-trip)
For domestic flights within Chile (within 90 days of departure) — CLP$2,700 one-way (CLP$5,400 round-trip)
For domestic flights within Colombia (within 90 days of departure) — COL$13,400 one-way (COL$26,800 round-trip)
For domestic flights within Ecuador (within 90 days of departure) — $3 one-way ($6 round-trip)
For flights between South American countries or between South America and the Caribbean (within 120 days of departure) — $9 one-way ($18 round-trip)
For all other international flights (within 120 days of departure) — $21 one-way ($42 round-trip)

Here is the fee schedule for LATAM Pass award flight changes/refunds:

Route	Change Fee (Before the Flight):	Refund Fee (Before the Flight):
Within Argentina	$40	$60
Within Brazil	$60	$65
Within Chile	$40	$60
Within Colombia	$25	$30
Within Ecuador	$15	$25
Within Peru	$16	$60
Between South American countries	$75	$100
Between South America and the U.S.	$200	$250
All other international flights	$150	$200

You can only apply for changes and refunds before your flight departs, as long as your miles wouldn’t have expired (are still valid), and if the ticket is wholly unused. Otherwise, there are no changes and refunds permitted.

How To Boost Your LATAM Pass Miles

LATAM Pass isn’t currently 1:1 transfer partners with any U.S. transferable currency. So while it won’t be as easy to amass lots of miles as it is with United MileagePlus or Delta SkyMiles, it’s still possible.

The best transfer partner is Marriott Bonvoy, which transfers to LATAM Pass at a 3:1 ratio. Also, for every 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points transferred to LATAM Pass, you’ll earn a bonus of 5,000 LATAM miles.

That means that if you transfer 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points to LATAM Pass, you’ll end up with 25,000 LATAM Pass miles instead of 20,000 LATAM Pass miles.

The 17 Best Ways To Use Your LATAM Pass Miles

Now that we’ve walked through the general rules and regulations of LATAM Pass and the best ways to accumulate miles, we’re finally getting to the fun part: using your miles!

So let’s get into all of our favorite and neat ways to redeem your LATAM Pass miles.

1. Fly Delta One One-Way Between the U.S. and South America (72,000 Miles)

Delta One 767 — Delta One aboard the 767 is most likely what you’ll encounter on flights between the U.S. and South America. Image Credit: Delta

If you’re looking for superb value relative to other loyalty programs when using LATAM Pass miles, there aren’t a lot of sweet spots — luckily, this is one of them!

For SkyTeam flights to South America, Delta’s own SkyMiles program charges at least 120,000 miles one-way compared to LATAM Pass’s 72,000 miles.

The best airline you’ll want to focus on is Delta, simply because LATAM’s own flights are priced sky-high (think 250,000+ miles one-way).

Delta features a fantastic business class product with lie-flat seats, cutting-edge technology, and luxe amenities; most flights are operated by the 767 aircraft.

Here are a few example redemptions you can make:

Atlanta (ATL) – Buenos Aires (EZE) one-way in Delta One business class for 72,000 LATAM Pass miles
Atlanta (ATL) – Lima (LIM) one-way in Delta One business class for 72,000 LATAM Pass miles
Atlanta (ATL) – Santiago (SCL) one-way in Delta One business class for 72,000 LATAM Pass miles

2. Fly Delta One One-Way Between the U.S. and Africa (108,000 Miles)

Delta One A330-300 — Delta One business class aboard the A330-300 is available on flights to Africa. Image Credit: Delta

Delta is one of the few airlines that operates long-haul and ultra-long-haul flights to/from Africa. In this case, it’s possible to book Delta’s fabulous business class product using LATAM Pass miles.

Delta offers a variety of business class products, including reverse herringbone seats (pictured above), Delta One Suites, forward-facing staggered lie-flat seats, and more.

For 108,000 LATAM Pass miles each way, you can book nonstop flights between the U.S. and Africa aboard Delta.

Here are a few nonstop routes you can book:

3. Fly Qantas Business Class Between the U.S. and Australia (108,000 Miles)

Qantas is one of the best ways to cross the Pacific Ocean and fly to Australia. Although the jury is out on how its long-haul route network will look in a post-pandemic era, we can probably count on U.S.-Australia routes as being some of the most popular leisure routes in the world.

Luckily, it’s possible to redeem LATAM Pass miles on Qantas, thanks to LATAM’s former membership in the Oneworld alliance. Even though Qantas is difficult to find business class availability on, it’s so worth it!

You can book any of these nonstop Qantas flights as example redemptions:

Los Angeles (LAX) – Brisbane (BNE) one-way in Qantas business class for 108,000 LATAM Pass miles

QSuites is one of the most aspirational redemptions you can make — Qatar Airways is now world-famous for its superb business class suites product with first class amenities, food, and service.

This carrier is also famous for its ultra-long-haul flights since the U.S. and Qatar are up to 16 hours apart!

But in this case, our favorite QSuites redemption is for flights between the Middle East and Australia.

Here are few sample redemptions you can make:

Doha (DOH) – Adelaide (ADL) one-way in Qatar Airways QSuites for 108,000 LATAM Pass miles

Another terrific way to enjoy QSuites with LATAM Pass miles is on flights between the Middle East and South America.

Qatar Airways doesn’t offer many of these routes, though we hope this will change soon, considering the ultra-long-haul nature of these routes.

SWISS and its subsidiary Edelweiss operate a few nonstop flights between Europe and the Middle East.

But one flight, in particular, is always pricey, and that’s the nonstop flight to Dubai. If you paid cash, business class costs would be around $2,000 to $4,000 one-way and $5,000 to $6,000 round-trip!

Luckily, you can get some superb redemption value by using LATAM Pass miles for this flight.

Its sole transfer partner is Marriott Bonvoy at a 3:1 ratio with a 5,000-mile bonus for every 60,000 points transferred to LATAM.

And while we wouldn’t recommend transferring your points speculatively, you could find some value in the program if you had a specific redemption in mind.

Our favorite redemptions are nonstop Delta One flights from the U.S. to South America and Africa, as well as premium cabin flights aboard Qantas, Qatar Airways, and British Airways on select routes around the world.

LATAM pass miles and LATAM pass points are using different redeem chart. The region-based chart mentioned by you is actually in LATAM pass points (Former multiplus) for Brazil residents. For other regions is LATAM pass miles with distance-based redeem chart.

Hey guys, the best sweetspot is not on the list:
Sao Paulo (GRU) to Africa with a Stop in Doha flying Qatar Airways is priced at just 84,000 latam pass miles.
I flew May 2022 from GRU to JNB in Q suites, and back with only 168k LP miles.
