Azul Announces September Estimated Capacity
São Paulo, August 5, 2020 – Azul S.A., “Azul” (B3:AZUL4, NYSE:AZUL), the best airline in the world according to Tripadvisor, announces today that it expects to operate 407 peak daily departures in September. Domestic capacity in total for the month will represent approximately 55% of the Company’s domestic capacity and 45% of total capacity for the same period last year. Since April, the Company has increased its domestic capacity by a factor of five. In addition, the Company will be adding eight domestic destinations to its route network, totaling 88.
“We are glad to see that passenger demand is returning, which is already allowing us to be at 45% of last year’s capacity. This compares very positively to our conservative view of 40% demand recovery by December, as we presented in our first quarter earnings call,” says Abhi Shah, Azul’s Chief Revenue Officer.
