LATAM Airlines will
introduce the Airbus
A350 XWB aircraft on
the Johannesburg-São Paulo
route from August 1.
With a three-class
configuration, the aircraft
features fully reclining seats
in business class, panoramic
windows and wider overhead
lockers for more storage
space in economy class.
To help stave off jet lag,
the cabin has an intelligent
LED lighting system that
simulates natural phases of
the day.
Compared with previousgeneration aircraft, the
A350 XWB has 25% lower
operating costs, fuel burn
and CO2 emissions.
The announcement of the
arrival of the new aircraft
comes ahead of the LATAM
Latin America Roadshow
being held for agents in
Johannesburg on May 28
at the Fourways Farmer’s
Market, and in Cape Town
on May 30 at the Cape
Town Marriott Hotel Crystal
Towers. Both events will run
from 08h00 to 13h00.
