LATAM has unveiled a big new order for Embraer jets that could support new U.S. flights for the South American airline.
The Santiago, Chile-based carrier will take up to 74 E195-E2 jets from Embraer beginning in the second half of 2026, LATAM said Monday. The planes that seat around 132 passengers in a single-class layout will initially fly at the airline's Brazilian subsidiary.
Roberto Alvo, CEO of LATAM, said in a statement the deal would allow the airline "to continue on our path of profitable growth by enhancing that connectivity through the opening of new destinations."
