LATAM Brazil has just announced further adjustments to its air network in Rio de Janeiro, following the technical and positive decision of the Ministry of Ports and Airports (MPOR), which on November 8th revoked the distance limit for flights at Santos Dumont airport, setting instead a ceiling of 6.5 million passengers per year as of January 2024.

Tickets will be available on LATAM’s website later this week.
