Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo (Viracopos) and Santiago de Chile were part of Lufthansa’ regular schedule in South America in 1987. All operations were carried out by Boeing 747s with three seating classes.

Brazil was the airline’s main market in the region, followed by Argentina and Uruguay. All three countries had connections to other Lufthansa destinations from its hub at Frankfurt airport.

Considering the airports to which they operated in 1987, only Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro continue to be served by Lufthansa, although flights to the Brazilian city are currently to and from Munich.
