More Route Options, Less Hassle

As a result of this joint venture, LATAM travellers can now conveniently connect to their travel plans to Australia through:

Domestic Routes in Australia:

• Melbourne – Alice Springs (Perfect for the Outback dreamers who wish to spot kangaroos in their natural habitat)
• Melbourne – Cairns (Australia’s Great Barrier Reef and beaches await)
• Melbourne – Darwin (Where the croc population exceeds humans and jaw-dropping sunsets take the cake)
• Melbourne – Devonport and Launceston (Tasmania has the best wine, wildness, and cutest wombats)
• Melbourne – Mildura (The Outback representation of Australia in Victoria)
• Sydney – Alice Springs and Darwin (because more desert means more fun)

International Route:

• Melbourne – Singapore (Everything tastes better with a Michelin starred streetfood for layover)

What Makes This Exciting

Before, LATAM flyers to Australia had it tough. If you wanted to go to Alice Springs or Cairns, separate flights would need to be booked after the initial “landing” in Sydney or Melbourne. Now, it’s as easy as a single booking. Reserve a ticket from Santiago to Sydney, and then hop onto a connecting flight to Cairns. No hassles, no waiting.

For business travellers, gaining access to key area such as Darwin – which is booming in mining and government – and Tasmania – which is known for luxury retreats and award-winning artisanal cheese – is now easier. For more adventurous souls, it is an opportunity to experience everything Australia has to offer beyond Bondi Beach and the fruit covered laneways of Melbourne.

The Airline Trend That’s Changing Everything

This is still part of the larger picture of a trend in the aviation industry: why fly everywhere yourself when you could partner with someone else. Rather than using older models of launching costly new routes, LATAM and Qantas are joining a growing number of airlines expanding their networks through intelligent collaboration.

What does this mean for travellers?

• An abundance of flight routes under a single ticket.
• No more baggage transfer hassles.
• Better odds of cheaper prices (more competition = lower prices).

With LATAM trying to establish a stronger presence, and Qantas already dominating the regional market, this is only the beginning. Perhaps Brisbane and Perth will be next?

What is certain for now, is that traveling from South America to Australia is significantly easier now. And what better way to celebrate than with a flat white in Melbourne, or a Tim Tam in Darwin?

For now, one thing’s for sure: getting from South America to Australia just became a whole lot simpler. And if that’s not worth celebrating with a flat white in Melbourne or a Tim Tam in Darwin, what is?

So, whether you’re off to dive the Great Barrier Reef, chase kangaroos in the Outback, or just figure out why Australians insist on calling every friend “mate,” this expanded codeshare is your golden ticket. Pack your bags, brush up on your Aussie slang, and get ready for an adventure—because Australia just got a whole lot closer!
