How to become an Elite member

Qualify for our Elite categories

Qualify for your next member category, access exclusive Elite Benefits and earn more LATAM Pass Miles on your flights. 

Check out below the two options for accessing Elite categories. You have to meet the requirements of any one of them:

Option 1: Meeting the goals of Qualifying Points that you accumulate on your flights:

Qualifying Points are exclusive to qualify for our Elite categories and are calculated from the dollars you spent on your ticket (minus taxes, fees and additional services) and the multiplier depending on the destination: domestic and international.

• For example: If you buy a ticket for an intercontinental flight for $900, you subtract taxes, fees and additional services - a total of $100 - and there is $800 left. That amount is multiplied by the International Flight Multiplier -x6-, as a result of which you earn 4,800 Qualifying Points on your flight.

Option 2: Meeting the goals of Qualifying Segments

The Qualifying Segments will be earned during your trips and correspond to the route between the departure point and the destination on a single flight, on the same airplane. 

• For example: If you travel from Concepción (Chile) to Madrid (Spain), with a connection in Santiago (Chile) where you change planes, and another connection in São Paulo (Brazil) - where you also change planes -, you will add three Qualifying Segments: One for your trip from Concepción to Santiago, another for your journey from Santiago to São Paulo and the third for flying from São Paulo to Madrid.

• The LATAM Pass Miles, which you also earn on your trips, are different from Qualifying Points and are used to be redeemed for tickets.
