Special baggage pre-sale is available. The new ancillary code is 0K6 and it will be identified in our systems as SPORTING EQUIPMENT UP TO 45KG.

15 kg bagagem: As of 31 October 2024, the sale of checked baggage of 15 kg is not available. Passengers who purchased the product before suspension will be able to transport it without any problems.

Considerations

•    It is allowed for all Brands, even for those that include baggage allowance by default.
• Each piece is considered to have a standard weight of 23 kg. If the bag is determined to be overweight at the time of check-in, the passenger will have to pay the excess weight fee at the airport.
• Associated charges
• The prices of bags on international and domestic routes, except Domestic Colombia, will be communicated in the form of differentiated variable ranges according to season (high / low), anticipation of purchase, brand and/or route of the passenger. This implies that on the same flight there may be different prices for passengers who paid for different fares. Consider: a) DOM BR flights issued before September 12, 2019 that the price changes at 3 hours; b) DOM BR flights between September 12 and October 20, 2019, the price of bags changes in the range of 6 hours before flight departure.
• For domestic flights within Colombia, the price of bags changes in the range of 6 hours before flight departure.
• The earlier the purchase, the lower the price.
• Number of pieces transported (more bags, higher the price). Travel Agencies can issue up to 3 bags, if the passenger wishes to purchase the 4th suitcase or more, it can be purchased through latamairlines.com.
• For the purpose of latamairlines.com, prices will be announced in variable ranges. For a list of prices for additional baggage, click here. Then log in to "Flights within Argentina, Chile, Peru, Brazil, Colombia or Ecuador" or "Regional and international flights".
• All prices are final, and taxes are applied according to the market concerned.
• The distribution systems deliver the current prices when selecting the Ancillary Element of the required product. 

Maximum allowed checked baggage quantity per passenger

Maximum amount of baggage allowed per passenger for LATAM flights, is a limit of 10 checked baggage. Except on flights between Quito and Miami (round trip), where the maximum allowed is up to 3 checked bags in Premium cabins and up to 2 checked bags in Economy cabins, due to operational capacity. Further details in latamairlines > Latam Experience > Baggage >  Checked baggage.

Baggage delay on flights to/from the United States

From October 28, 2024, the new reimbursement regulations of the US Department of Transportation (DOT) establish it must be proactively refund paid baggage when is delivered with the following delay:

• US Domestic: within 12 hours of flight arrival 
• International flights to/from the USA with a duration of less than or equal to 12 hours: within 15 hours of flight arrival 
• International flights to/from the USA with a duration greater than 12 hours: within 30 hours of flight arrival

The reimbursement of paid baggage will be managed directly in LATAM when the claim is generated for the delay of the baggage.

• On LATAM flights, seats may be reserved at the time of purchase or during check-in. Depending on the fare paid or their membership status, customers may reserve their seats in advance.
• Until further notice, we recommend do not sell seats within 72 h flight departure, due to the seat purchased within 72 hours may be in sold status buy fail to be confirmed for the flight. Bookings within 72 hours from departure will only be possible via latamairlines.com.
• We recommend that our Travel Agents advise passengers to purchase seats in advance (when purchasing the ticket or 72 hours prior to the flight) directly through the Travel Agency.
• We are working to solve this issue and resume the sale of this product through agencies, which will be informed in due time through this same channel.
• The company sells 2 types of seats for sale: LATAM + Seats and Standar Seats

LATAM+ SEATS +

Available on all international and domestic routes. Except route to/from Easter Island (IPC).

The seats previously known as “Preferred Seats” (+Forward, +Space and Exit Row) have changed their name to LATAM+ seats.

The purchase of a LATAM+ seat includes additional attributes depending on where the seat is located in the cabin. These attributes are:

• Priority Boarding: Customers with a LATAM+ seat may use the “Priority” boarding lane
• More Space: Seats located in the first row of the Economy cabin and in exit rows
• Reserved Overhead Bin Space: Customers with a LATAM+ seat (except exit row seats) have access to reserved overhead space until the bins are full
• Carry on for Basic Brand: It allows carry on and personal item.
  

To make this feature visible, “Reserved for LATAM+ Seats” stickers are being affixed in these compartments

Example:

Narrow body aircraft

On narrow body aircraft, LATAM+ seats are located in rows 1 through 7 and in exit rows.

Wide body aircraft

On wide body aircraft, LATAM+ seat location varies depending on the aircraft configuration, as shown in the following table:

Requirements for emergency exits

To choose a seat at the emergency exit, you must meet the following requirements:

• Be older than 15 and younger than 60 years of age.
• Be mobile, strong and physically able to operate the emergency exit.
• Have the ability to read and understand instructions in the crew’s language.
• Have sufficient vision or hearing ability to perform functions in the event of an emergency.
• Be able to communicate verbally with the other passengers.
• Not be in charge of someone with a condition or be entrusted with a responsibility, such as the care of small children.
• LATAM personnel can verify whether the passenger complies with the requirements to sit in this seat. If you do not meet these requirements, you will be assigned a regular seat.

STANDARD SEATS (Seat Selection)

• All seats in Economy Cabin have an associated value for their use (by default, the Brand in Business allow seat without additional cost in the cabin). The sale applies to all LATAM routes.

CONSIDERATIONS FOR SALE

• Seats available for sale are displayed in each system. 

• If the Brand does not have the seat attribute included by default, the seat may be purchased later.

• Customers whose fare does not include seat selection and do not buy this option will have their seats assigned randomly at the time of check-in. The assigned seat will appear in the boarding pass and may be separated from other passengers in the same reservation. However, for safety reasons minors will always be seated next to an adult.

• Check out Terms of use that passengers have to accept at the moment of the purchase of an Emergency Exit Seat at latamairlines.com

• Seats reserved through GDSs that have an associated cost will have a time limit to change from “reserved” status (HD/HN) to “paid” status (HI/HK) according to the following:
  • EMD for seats associated to a ticket already issued (1st issue): TL 6 hours after seat reservation.
  • EMD for seats associated to a reissued ticket (2nd issue onwards): TL 24 hours after seat reservation.
  • EMD for seats that must be re-associated to a reissued ticket:  TL 24 hours after seat reservation.
    

Therefore, reservations of tickets in “reserved” status (HD/HN) will be automatically canceled after the TL and a new reservation must be booked according to the current seat availability.

This time limit (TL) does not apply to seats where the cost is waived (E.g. branded fares, passenger elite status, special services or group reservations).

Note: Seats reserved by latamairlines.com have a 45 minutes Time Limit, hence, if the purchase of the seats is not completed, seat reservation will be canceled.

In the following cases the Transaction is exempt from payment:

LATAM+ Seat:

• Full (KD) Brand.
  
• Passengers on domestic and international routes with Black Signature and Black in LATAM Pass (miles/points); and Emerald status (Except AA).
  
• Passengers on domestic routes with Platinum in LATAM Pass (miles/points) and Sapphire status (Except AA).
  
• This benefit applies to one (1) companion of Black Signature and Black members.
  

Standard Seat:

• Plus (SE) or Full (KD) Brand
  
• Passengers on domestic and international routes with Black Signature and Black in LATAM Pass (miles/points); and Emerald status (Except AA).
  
• Passengers on domestic routes with Platinum in LATAM Pass (miles/points) and Sapphire status (Except AA).
  
• This benefit applies to one (1) companion of Black Signature and Black members.
  
• Award tickets are not subject to standard seat charges.
  

Consider that the systems do not recognize the member's status, so members must contact the direct channel to obtain the Seat Selection or LATAM+ Seat benefit. The Travel Agency must enter the frequent flyer number at the time of making the reservation in order to identify the passenger's Elite category. Gold Plus members have discount benefit on the purchase of seats, check the news published here.

For cases where the seats are free according to the selected brand, EMD-A must be issued for a zero amount for such seats in the case of Amadeus and Travelport users. Failure to issue the EMD will prevent the passenger from using the seat, even if the reserved seat appears in the reservation. 

It does not apply to GDS Sabre, therefore, in this case it is not necessary to issue the EMD-A at zero cost, since Sabre leaves the “AE” element (“Ancillary Element”) automatically in HK status.

• Consider that, when a Seat is sold by direct sales on a reservation issued through the indirect sales, the reservation includes the following SSR OTHS message: SSR OTHS PSGR WITH PREPAID SEAT MCO RESTRICTIONS APPLY IN CASE OF CHG OR REF. This message will alert the Travel Agent to advise the passenger that the preferred seat is not transferred to the new flight; therefore in case of voluntary date changes, the passenger must request the transfer of the seat to the direct sales channel. 
• *On Codeshare flights where LATAM would be the marketing carrier: seats must be booked every time a customer requests so.
• Only in the case of system limitations for pre-booking a seat in any cabin (e.g. a seat is booked but not confirmed), the agent must instruct the customer to book the seat directly with the operating carrier at the time of checking in for the flight at the airport.
• There are no restrictions for assigning seats in the Business cabin. Therefore, agents can book the seat directly in the system.
• In Economy cabin, seat assignment is subject to the operating carrier’s seat pre-booking policies.
• Important: If an EMD is introduced when booking a seat on a codeshare flight, the reservation process must be stopped and the customer must be informed that the seat will only be assigned at the airport.
• Sold seats that are involuntarily reassigned will be handled as follows starting October 28, 2024:
• If the customer contacts the travel agency before the flight departure, informing them that they have had an involuntary change of a paid seat, the Travel Agent must refund the amount paid for the seat if the customer does not accept the seat offered.
• If the customer contacts the travel agency after the trip, informing them that they traveled in a different seat than the one they purchased, they should be advised to contact LATAM to verify the involuntary seat reassignment and process the refund for the paid seat.

The same-day flight change t allows you to modify the time of your flight for another one within the same calendar day. 

Unfortunately, not all of our products are available to be marketed in travel agencies. We are working to achieve this in the future. Meanwhile, your customers can access the service through our website, APP and airport sales offices.
