LATAM Cargo Brasil has announced a new cargo route connecting Mexico and Brazil.

The route will have a weekly cargo frequency and will start in April this year.

The southbound flight will serve Mexico City-Recife-Viracopos on Sundays, while the northbound flight will connect Viracopos with Mexico City on Saturdays.

LATAM Cargo Brasil said the new operation would “expedite the shipping process for customers who need to reach their markets in the shortest possible time”.

The route also allows LATAM Cargo operators to offer an additional alternative to its existing cargo service onboard passenger aircraft, the company said.
