These are the 48 flights that Latam suspends in Ecuador due to contagion from its crew

From Monday 10 to January 23, Latam Ecuador will cancel 48 flights due to omicron infections detected in its crew, which prevents it from maintaining all its normal operations.

The company stated that it has provided commercial flexibilities for exchange or return, which can be consulted at flight status at Latam.com.
