Brazil's dedicated air cargo carrier.

Founded
1995
Headquarters
São Paulo, Brazil
ABSA - Aerolinhas Brasileiras S.A. is a Brazilian all-cargo airline that has operated scheduled and charter freight services domestically and internationally. Founded in the 1990s, the airline focused on providing cargo solutions across Latin America and beyond, serving key commercial and industrial freight markets. ABSA became a subsidiary of TAM Airlines (later LATAM Airlines Group) following an acquisition, which integrated its operations into one of Latin America's largest aviation groups. This relationship gave ABSA access to a broader network and resources while maintaining its cargo-focused identity. The airline operated Boeing 767 freighter aircraft on routes connecting Brazil with North America and other destinations, positioning itself as a significant player in the Brazilian air cargo sector. Over time, its operations were increasingly absorbed into the LATAM Cargo brand.
