Overview
- The cancellation takes effect on March 11, 2026 after more than 23 months of service and roughly 110,000 passengers carried.
- LATAM says the route’s weak financial performance is exacerbated by Lima Airport Partners’ plan to apply the TUUA to transfer passengers from late October 2025.
- About 70% of travelers on the Lima–Havana flights are connections in Lima, which the airline says makes the new charge especially damaging to competitiveness versus other regional hubs.
- Customers booked on or after the closure date may advance travel, request a full refund, or be reprotected on other operators, and the airline is contacting affected passengers.
- Flights will continue to operate until the cutoff date as officials review the fee plan and stakeholders warn about the impact on Jorge Chávez Airport’s hub role.
