2026 Latam Pass Changes
 

Received this today:

I can't find any clarification if by choosing the benefit to receive 50% more QP will it only apply to the next flight? The rest of the year? Also I can't find if it will a benefit to redeem at 6,000 points, 23,500, or more.
I always buy Full tickets for the flexibility and the 50% extra QP earnings, but this change in conjunction with the previous upgrade priority change makes me think I will demote Latam to my 3rd choice.

I've seen the info here

It mentions it will be a new option in 2026 at the 23,500 points (other benefits are valid until March 31st on the following year, I would assume it will be same for this one, valid on all flights until then)

Thank you for the link because it’s not found on the US site yet. The 23,500 points level reward level for this is ridiculous.

it only takes one intercontinental round trip in business...

App not in English makes it difficult for many US residents. Probably for many Brazilians also.

Making it more difficult to reach status is the trend of most airlines so I can accept that. But the upgrade process of who can do it faster still makes no sense.

More than the "who can do it faster" rule, I am annoyed by the frequency of changes to what LATAM still claim is a "programme". For me, it has rather become something like a loose collection of rules and benefits which tend to be changed every couple of months.

I still cannot find any information on the new rules for 2026 quoted above which allegedly will apply in not much more than a month from today. If privileges for their most loyal flyers will really be subject to further reductions and mileage earning will turn even poorer, trying to keep status in the future does not really make sense, unless you obtain it as a by-product anyway.

While I totally understand that airlines, first of all, are there to make money, a frequent flyer scheme also implies a certain consistency and transparency. And these two key aspects are dearly missed with LATAM nowadays.

Before the merger LAN and TAM it was better
Part of One World was better

The well run FF programs are worth more than the airline itself. Latam Pass is not going to be able to joint Skyteam the way it is managed now

There seems to be another change, but perhaps it is just the Latam website being messy. If you check information about mileage accrual by accessing the LatamPass website from the main page, you find the following information: https://latampass.latam.com/es_pe/ac...lando-en-latam . There is a general "multiplicador" for domestic and South American flights and another one for international flights. Around this time last year a different multiplicador was introduced, with new regulations for 2025, and with a considerably higher accumulation for domestic flights in some countries (especially in Brazil and Peru) booked in Full Economy and above: https://latampass.latam.com/es_pe/reglamento-2025 . So I wonder which multiplicador is the valid and the current one. I don't know whether the new regulations have been/will be abandonened or whether it is just the messy Latam website that does not present the information properly, with no mention of the new rules.

I roll my eyes when I see their page that says it evolves every day. I’m like Every day? Is that stable? lol

link to this?
cannot find

I think it's not on the English site yet.

Could not find on the Spanish site either

Anyone with the original text in Spanish to use in a targeted deep search of latam.com?

It's on the linked site, select 23.500 and it's the last benefit listed.

I haven't seen it on the US English language site.

Saw that but I was focussing on the second point of the OP about no longer being able to bring a companion into a partner lounge beginning January 1.
