LATAM has secured $505 million (about €433 million) for 11 jets. Deliveries are due to start in the second half of 2026.

LATAM aircraft financing ties $400 million to emissions

Of the total funding, $400 million carries interest benefits linked to the airline group’s sustainability performance.

The loan tracks emissions intensity, meaning the amount of CO₂ produced for each unit transported. LATAM receives more favorable terms as that measure falls.

Which aircraft are included?

The package covers three aircraft models supplied by Airbus and Embraer.

Aircraft model Number
Airbus A320neo 1
Airbus A321neo 4
Embraer E195-E2 6

The Airbus models are single-aisle aircraft, while the Embraer E195-E2 is a smaller jet commonly used on short- and medium-distance services.

What travellers should watch next

The announcement does not name routes, cabin layouts or exact entry-into-service dates, so it does not yet give travellers a specific new flight to book.

Passengers interested in flying on the aircraft should watch LATAM’s published schedules as the jets enter service. Aircraft assignments can change for operational reasons, so travellers should check the listed model again close to departure.
