LATAM Debuts New Premium Service

LATAM Airlines Group today now has a new Premium Business service onboard the first Boeing 777 in its fleet. The service is part of a $500 million investment to improve the passenger experience and includes $400 million in cabin renovations.

The launch event in late August at Manutenção em Linha Center at São Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport showcased a new culinary concept and cabin crew protocols to provide more comfort and privacy, allowing passengers to reach their destination feeling renewed and refreshed. Starting this month, the new service will be available on all LATAM international flights.

Premium Business includes a new gastronomic proposition designed by renowned Chilean and Brazilian chefs Pamela Fidalgo and Aninha that allows passengers to rest well and wake-up revived on long haul flights. True to LATAM tradition, the menu will also be accompanied South America’s best wines, hand-selected by Héctor Vergara, the continent’s only master sommelier.

In addition, LATAM has implemented new service protocols for cabin crew with fewer interruptions. It has also introduced new premium pillows, bed clothes and mattresses with temperature-regulating and pressure-point technology for every flat-bed seat to maximize comfort.

” We are investing over half a billion dollars in cabin renovations, digital tools and improving our service to offer each of our customers a tailored travel experience,” said Paulo Miranda, Vice President of Customers, LATAM Airlines Group. “With the new Premium Business experience, we aim to continue being the first choice for corporate customers, offering industry leading cabins and service. Our new Premium Business service offers more comfort and privacy so that our passengers can rest and arrive refreshed at their destination. We have transformed our service, starting with a new culinary concept as well as new cabin crew protocols and service elements.”

New Cabin Standard

LATAM Airlines Brazil’s first renovated Boeing 777 represents the new standard for the group’s long-haul aircraft and is one of approximately 200 planes – representing over half of the global LATAM fleet – that will be upgraded over the next two years. The aircraft features new Premium Business seats with direct aisle access, a renovated Economy cabin and LATAM+ Seats, which offer greater space, a dedicated overhead bin and premium services such as priority boarding.

In the new Premium Business cabin, each custom-designed Thompson seat offers more privacy and direct aisle access, as well as configurations for both individuals and couples. The seats recline 180o into a fully-flat bed, feature the latest generation in-flight entertainment with an 18” Panasonic personal screen and have ample space for personal items.

LATAM’s Boeing 777 also features a revamped Economy cabin, offering passengers a new look, improved comfort and a state-of-the-art inflight entertainment system with an unrivalled selection of content.
