LATAM Airlines will be expanding international connectivity within its route network with plans to reintroduce weekly service between Lima, Peru, and Havana, Cuba. The airline announced the service Tuesday, making the capital of Cuba its fifth destination in the Caribbean.

With LATAM’s large presence in Lima, passengers traveling from Cuba will be able to connect to a number of destinations. In turn, the carrier seems confident that Brazilians will also enjoy the route’s return leisure travel.

The first time in three years
While LATAM awaits government approval to resume the service, the airline confirmed that it is scheduled to begin on October 29th with four weekly frequencies. The route has been suspended since March 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic shuttered air travel worldwide. Aline Mafra, Director of Sales and Marketing at LATAM Brasil, emphasized the airline’s international connectivity with returning service.

Havana, the capital of Cuba, is the country’s leading tourist destination and cultural center. It is known for its historic spaces, including the Fortaleza de San Carlos de la Cabaña, which is one of the largest military fortresses built in the Americas. Iglesia Reina, a historic cathedral built in 1914, is also home to Havana. Art and culture are also featured at events the city hosts, such as the International Festival of New Latin American Cinema and the Havana International Ballet Festival.
