Maximize Your Latam Pass Miles Points
Program Overview
LATAM Pass is the frequent flyer program for LATAM Airlines (LA), the largest airline group in South America and a Oneworld member. Miles earn on LATAM flights and partner spending, redeeming for LATAM metal and Oneworld partner flights. Key strengths: extensive South America network via Lima, Bogotá, Santiago, and São Paulo hubs; Oneworld partnership for partner redemptions; LATAM's premium cabin product improving on long-haul routes. Key weaknesses: limited US earning options; co-branded cards not widely available in the US; primarily useful for travelers going to/from South America. Best for: US travelers with frequent trips to South America, or Latin American residents accumulating miles for LATAM redemptions.
Earning Tips
Earning LATAM Pass miles from the US is primarily through: - LATAM revenue flights (earn depends on fare class) - Oneworld partner flights credited to LATAM - LATAM's shopping and hotel partner portals (mainly South American markets) No US transferable bank program partners. Use AAdvantage as the primary Oneworld accumulation vehicle for South American redemptions instead.
Redemption Tips
Best LATAM Pass redemptions: LATAM metal (intra-South America): - Short-haul within South America: often 10,000–20,000 miles one-way - US → South America business class: 45,000–80,000 miles depending on route and distance Oneworld partners: LATAM Pass can book Oneworld metal but pricing may not be competitive vs. AAdvantage or other Oneworld programs. Miles expire after 12–18 months of inactivity depending on status tier.
Transfer Strategy
LATAM Pass does not accept transfers from major US bank programs (Amex MR, Chase UR, etc.). Primary US earning: - Flying LATAM on revenue tickets - Flying Oneworld partners and crediting to LATAM Pass (where eligible) - LATAM's limited US hotel and car rental partners For US travelers targeting South America: Air Canada Aeroplan (Star Alliance) and American AAdvantage (Oneworld) both have better US earning infrastructure for South American redemptions.
