Aircraft

## Who provides LATAM Airlines Wi-Fi, and which planes have it

- ### [SES](https://kilobat.app/in-flight-wifi/intelsat)

  The provider runs: Geostationary satellite · Low-orbit satellite

  2Ku satellite Wi-Fi on more than 200 A320-family aircraft. SES says new A320neo, A321XLR and Embraer E195-E2 aircraft will get its multi-orbit service in the coming years.
- ### [Viasat](https://kilobat.app/in-flight-wifi/viasat)

  The provider runs: Geostationary satellite

  Viasat Amara, combining geostationary and low-orbit satellites, chosen for the long-haul wide-body fleet from 2026.

LATAM says every single-aisle aircraft in Brazil has Wi-Fi, as do most in Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. Wi-Fi is only on domestic flights within South America or between South American countries. SES said in July 2026 that LATAM had over 250 aircraft with Wi-Fi. LATAM announced long-haul Wi-Fi from Viasat in July 2025, starting in 2026, but its Wi-Fi page still covers single-aisle aircraft only.

## Make a slow, shared link go further

Kilobat is a Mac menu-bar app that shows what each app sends and holds back what can wait. On LATAM Airlines Wi-Fi:

- **The sign-in page.** When it doesn’t open by itself, the menu bar says **This Wi-Fi wants you to sign in**, with **Open sign-in page**. Turn your VPN on after you’ve signed in.
- **Mark it metered.** macOS treats plane Wi-Fi as unlimited. Mark it **Metered** in Kilobat’s Wi-Fi & Bluetooth menu or with `kilobat networks cost metered`, and Kilobat skips its own speed tests. If automatic switching is enabled, it switches to Travel.
- **Updates wait.** With Pro, paused updaters enabled and the network filter on, macOS Software Update, App Store downloads, Google Updater and Microsoft AutoUpdate wait for an unmetered network. The apps keep working.
- **See what’s using it.** Every app’s upload and download, live in the menu bar, so a messaging-only plan isn’t spent on a sync you forgot.
- **Send later.** A big upload, such as Dropbox syncing a folder, shows as a row with its speed. With Pro, **Send later** can hold it until you’re on unmetered Wi-Fi again, for up to eight hours while Kilobat is open.
- **Know what’s slow.** Health shows latency and loss, and with Pro their history through the flight. Those measurements can help you investigate a slow connection. When Slack or Zoom won’t load, [Is it them or me?](https://kilobat.app/is-it-down) reads the service’s status page.
