Tips for booking cheap LATAM flights
MIA is LATAM's primary North American gateway with the most frequent and direct connections to South American capitals. For U.S. travelers, Miami often gives the best combination of non-stop options and connection times to South America.
Best LATAM fares on U.S.–South America routes appear 8 to 16 weeks before departure. Christmas, Carnival, and Easter book up 3 to 6 months ahead — plan early for peak South American travel seasons.
LATAM's oneworld membership means American Airlines AAdvantage and other oneworld frequent flyers can earn and redeem miles on LATAM flights — especially useful for routing AA domestic flights to a LATAM transatlantic or South American connection.
LATAM Pass is LATAM's internal loyalty program. Points can be earned on LATAM domestic and international flights across the group's countries and redeemed for flights within South America — good value for multi-country South American itineraries.
