Brazil senate approves Open Skies air deal with US
Brazil's senate Wednesday approved an Open Skies agreement between Brazil and the US that clears the way for a partnership between American Airlines and LATAM. The treaty will be sent to president Michel Temer, who is expected to sign it into law. The agreement allows an unlimited number of flights between Brazil and the US, the favourite destination of Brazilian tourists, and should result in lower airfare prices. It is expected to lead to increased interest by the US airline industry in the potentially huge Brazilian market. The accord was a requirement for the US DoT to approve a business deal between American Airlines and LATAM, the two largest carriers in the region, which would see them co-ordinating schedules and offering more connections. <br/>
