Azul Linhas Aéreas BrasileirasAZU/ AD

Azul Linhas Aéreas Brasileiras, founded in 2008 and headquartered in Campinas, São Paulo, is one of Brazil's largest airlines and a major carrier in South America's regional and domestic markets. The airline operates scheduled passenger flights throughout Brazil and to select international destinations, with primary hubs in Campinas and Recife, and serves as a key regional connector to underserved markets across the country. Azul is a member of the oneworld alliance and offers economy and premium economy cabin classes to passengers, along with its TudoAzul frequent flyer program. The airline operates a modern fleet and focuses on point-to-point service, competing as a full-service carrier rather than a low-cost model while emphasizing customer service and regional expansion. Azul has grown to become one of Brazil's "Big Three" carriers alongside LATAM and Gol, and is known for opening routes to smaller cities previously underserved by major airlines.
