Azul S.A., a Brazilian-based company, primarily offers air transportation services, both domestically within Brazil and across international routes, supported by its various subsidiaries. In addition to core passenger air travel, the company diversifies its revenue streams through activities such as cargo and mail delivery, passenger charter services, and the development of frequent-flyer programs. Its business scope further extends to intellectual property ownership, offering travel packages, aircraft financing and acquisition, leasing, and comprehensive maintenance and hangarage services for aircraft, engines, and components. As of December 31, 2023, the airline reported a substantial operational footprint, executing roughly 980 daily departures across a network of 400 direct routes serving 160 destinations. Its fleet comprised 181 operational aircraft, with a contractual passenger fleet totaling 185. Founded in 2008, Azul S.A. maintains its headquarters in Barueri, Brazil. However, on May 28, 2025, Azul S.A., alongside its affiliates, initiated voluntary Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.
