TAM, the Brazilian carrier that is part of LATAM Airlines Group, expects to take delivery of its first Airbus A350-900 in December and plans to deploy it on a domestic route initially.
TAM is expected to be the first airline in the Americas to operate the A350. In January 2016, it will fly the aircraft domestically between São Paulo Guarulhos and Manaus. In March 2016, TAM will begin São Paulo Guarulhos-Miami A350 flights. In April 2016, it will start Guarulhos-Madrid A350 service.
TAM said pilots currently flying its A330s will go through 60 days of training on the A350, which will take place both in flight and on the ground.
TAM has 27 A350s on order and is slated to take delivery of the type through 2019. The airline's A350s will be configured with 318 economy-class seats and 30 lie-flat seats in business class.
