LATAM Airlines flights: pay later plans

Yes. Laters.com lets you search LATAM Airlines (IATA code LA) flights and choose a pay-later or instalment plan at checkout instead of paying the full fare upfront. The option sits alongside 100+ other payment methods on the same booking flow.

LATAM's own payment help page lists cards, LATAM Wallet and local bank-debit or Pix routes and names no pay-later provider (checked 28 September 2026). Card instalments depend on your card and country. A payment plan on Laters.com comes from a provider at checkout, not from LATAM Airlines.

No. Once your instalment plan is approved, you get a normal LATAM Airlines booking reference that works in LATAM's My Trips system the same as a fare paid in full.

LATAM Airlines' conditions of carriage, published at latamairlines.com/gb/en/legal/transportation-contract-conditions, set out your refund and rebooking rights when the airline cancels a flight. Any outstanding instalments on your Laters.com plan are adjusted according to the refund you're owed under those conditions.

Cirium recorded 82.4% of LATAM Airlines arrivals on time in 2025, counting an arrival within 15 minutes of schedule as on time. Paying in instalments does not change how a flight runs; check your flight's status on latamairlines.com nearer to travel.

In Economy the carry-on limit is 12 kg and 55 x 35 x 25 cm; Premium Economy and Premium Business allow 16 kg. A small bag or backpack of up to 10 kg and 45 x 35 x 20 cm is separate, per LATAM's baggage help page (checked 28 September 2026). Whether your fare includes the carry-on depends on the fare, so check it at booking.

Yes. LATAM Airlines offers online check-in, and a booking made through Laters.com with a pay-later plan gives you the same LATAM booking reference to check in with at latamairlines.com.

That depends on the plan and provider you choose at Laters.com checkout, since some instalment options run a credit check and report to credit bureaus while others don't. Read the specific plan's terms before confirming, since this varies by provider rather than by LATAM Airlines itself.

AeroTime reports LATAM had 371 aircraft at the end of 2025 and expects 410 by the end of 2026. The mix changes as new aircraft arrive, so check the aircraft type shown on your booking.

We found no published annual cancellation rate for LATAM Airlines, so this page states none. If LATAM cancels a flight, its conditions of carriage set your refund and rebooking rights, and the instalments on your plan follow the refund you are owed.

Spreading a larger fare, such as a long-haul Premium Business ticket, over instalments can ease the upfront cost, but a plan is still credit. Choose one only if you can meet every repayment on schedule, and read the provider's terms first, since interest and late fees vary by plan.

LATAM's flight-status page lets you search by flight number or by route, plus the flight date, to see departure and arrival times. A booking made through Laters.com carries a normal LATAM booking reference, so you can also follow the trip in My Trips on latamairlines.com.

LATAM sets its own fares, and Laters.com does not set LATAM's fares. What you can control is the extras: a cabin bag over the limit (12 kg and 55 x 35 x 25 cm in Economy) is sent to the hold at an extra cost, and overweight or oversize checked bags are charged at check-in. Compare the total for your itinerary and check the baggage limits before you pay.

LATAM does not allow sharp objects such as knives, nail clippers, razors and hand tools in the cabin, and firearms are not allowed there either. Power banks are cabin-only, up to 2 units of 100 Wh each, and never in checked baggage. On international flights liquids are limited to containers of 100 ml or less in one transparent bag of up to 1 litre. Limits vary by route, so check LATAM's restricted-items page.
