History

The airline is based on the original cargo divisions of LAN Chile, Ladeco, and Fast Air Carrier. It also works closely with the other cargo airlines in the group, ABSA Cargo Airline, Florida West and Mas Air.[1] LAN Cargo has been rebranded to LATAM Cargo Chile as part of the merger of its parent LAN Chile with TAM Airlines to form LATAM Airlines Group during 2016.

During the global Coronavirus pandemic, the airline flew numerous additional routes on an ad-hoc basis, especially in May 2020 and beyond.
