Chile emerges as Latin America’s fastest growing market despite domination from LAN

29-Jan-2013 4:00 AM

Chile has recorded 17% passenger growth for the second consecutive year, making it the fastest growing market in Latin America. The rapid growth in Chile is somewhat surprising as it is one of the more mature markets in Latin America and the market is dominated by one player, LAN, which can have a stifling impact on competition. But the small country of 17 million continues to support rapid increases in travel propensity, which is already the highest in Latin America, driven by a strong economy and Chile’s unusual geography.

After recording flat traffic figures for 2009, Chile’s aviation market has grown by 57% over the last three years to 15.2 million passengers, according to Chilean Civil Aeronautics Board data. Growth in 2011 and 2012 was an impressive 17% while 2010 ended with 11% growth despite the impact of a devastating earthquake which struck Santiago in Feb-2010.

LAN and TAM are offering slots at congested Sao Paulo Guarulhos airport for any carrier interested in launching service on the Sao Paulo-Santiago route along with capacity and price guarantees.

Sky expansion reduces LAN-TAM domination in Chile

12-Apr-2011 4:12 PM

As Chile’s competition authorities continue to investigate and delay the proposed merger of LAN and TAM, the expansion of Sky Airline in Chile is starting to nibble away at LAN’s commanding share of the market. LAN and TAM combined now control 61% of Chile’s international market, according to February data from Chile’s civil aviation authority, JAC. Chile’s second carrier, Sky, only has a 6% share of the international market but has been expanding rapidly.
