GOL Airlines

Brazil & International Flights | Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

GOL Airlines is a Brazilian airline operating an extensive passenger network across Brazil and international markets throughout the Americas. Founded in 2001, GOL became one of the country’s major carriers by developing a standardized Boeing 737 fleet, broad domestic connectivity and a low-cost operating model designed to expand access to air transportation in Brazil.

The company operates as GOL Linhas Aéreas S.A. following a corporate restructuring completed in April 2026, when the former publicly traded holding company GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. was merged into the operating airline.

GOL combines its own domestic and international network with airline partnerships that extend connectivity beyond the destinations directly operated by the carrier. Its international footprint is particularly relevant across South America, the Caribbean and the United States.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇧🇷 BRAZILIAN AIR CONNECTIVITY

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Brazil remains the core of GOL’s aviation network.

The airline connects major metropolitan centers, business markets and leisure destinations across the country, including São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília, Belo Horizonte, Recife, Salvador, Fortaleza, Curitiba, Porto Alegre, Belém and Manaus.

Its domestic network also serves as the foundation for international connectivity, allowing passengers from multiple Brazilian cities to access GOL’s international gateways through connecting itineraries.

This network architecture gives the airline a significant position in both Brazil’s domestic transportation infrastructure and the country’s international travel market.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌎 INTERNATIONAL NETWORK

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

GOL’s international operations connect Brazil with destinations across the Americas.

The airline serves and markets travel involving markets in:

• United States
• Argentina
• Uruguay
• Paraguay
• Colombia
• Caribbean
• Other destinations across the Americas

International connectivity is further expanded through commercial partnerships with other global airlines, enabling passengers to reach destinations beyond GOL’s own operated network.

🇺🇸 GOL BETWEEN BRAZIL & THE UNITED STATES

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The United States represents an important component of GOL’s international network and is particularly relevant to Brazilian travelers and communities living abroad.

GOL currently markets U.S.–Brazil travel from major American gateways including Miami and Orlando, with connections to numerous Brazilian destinations.

Current itineraries offered through GOL include routes and connections involving:

• Miami (MIA)
• Orlando (MCO)
• Brasília
• Rio de Janeiro
• São Paulo
• Belo Horizonte
• Recife
• Manaus
• Belém
• Curitiba
• Fortaleza
• Porto Alegre
• Other Brazilian destinations

Florida therefore plays a particularly important role in GOL’s connection between Brazil and the United States, linking two of the largest Brazilian travel gateways in America — Miami and Orlando — with the company’s broader Brazilian network.

✈️ BOEING 737 FLEET

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

GOL has historically built its operating model around the Boeing 737 family, providing fleet standardization across its passenger operation.

As of March 31, 2026, the company reported a total fleet of 146 Boeing 737 aircraft, including:

• 12 Boeing 737-700 NG
• 68 Boeing 737-800 NG
• 57 Boeing 737-8 MAX
• 9 Boeing 737-800 NG BCF cargo aircraft

The standardized fleet structure has been a defining component of GOL’s operating strategy, supporting domestic, regional international and cargo operations.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📦 PASSENGER, LOYALTY & CARGO ECOSYSTEM

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

GOL’s aviation platform extends beyond scheduled passenger flights.

Its broader ecosystem includes:

• Domestic Passenger Transportation — extensive connectivity throughout Brazil.
• International Passenger Transportation — routes across the Americas.
• Smiles — loyalty and travel rewards ecosystem associated with GOL.
• GOLLOG — cargo and logistics operations.
• Corporate Travel — services and commercial agreements for business customers.
• Group & Charter Travel — specialized transportation for groups and dedicated operations.
• Airline Partnerships — commercial relationships extending international connectivity.

This structure positions GOL across passenger aviation, loyalty, logistics and corporate travel rather than solely as a point-to-point passenger carrier.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🏢 CORPORATE EVOLUTION

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

GOL entered a new corporate phase in 2026.

On April 1, 2026, GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. was merged into GOL Linhas Aéreas S.A., completing the former holding company’s delisting and going-private transaction.

The restructuring simplified the corporate organization around the operating airline while GOL continued its aviation activities under the GOL brand.

This distinction is important when identifying the company today: GOL Linhas Aéreas S.A. is the operating corporate entity behind the airline.
