Latam Airlines is the only airline connecting Israel to Latin America


A Latam Airlines aircraft landed for the first time at Tel Aviv David Ben-Gourion International Airport, marking the beginning of the Santiago – Tel Aviv service via Sao Paulo. This new route is the only direct air link between Latin America and Israel. This strategy is part of the Latam Airlines group’s European and international expansion.

« We are inaugurating the first direct flight between Latin America and Israel. The arrival in Israel of Latam Airlines, one of South America’s largest airlines, is a major step forward in the air links between Israel and Brazil. This represents a real sign of confidence in the tourist potential of the destination.
Given the considerable increase in incoming tourism from Latin America, the development of this tourism is a key objective.
In this context, the Ministry is also implementing innovative marketing actions, including the filming in Israel of a popular soap opera broadcast in America, » said Yariv Levin, Minister of Tourism of Israel.
