leadership team and our Board has always dedicated itself, in a disciplined manner, to its fundamental role of overseeing a well-structured
succession plan for top leadership roles,” said Constantino de Oliveira Junior, Chairman. “Kakinoff has been an outstanding
CEO for the last decade and has developed an excellent group of leaders to manage our airline over the next decade. We are thrilled for
the opportunity to continue working together on the Board.”
Celso, 39, is a long-time GOL executive with
broad and deep experience. Joining the airline in 2003, he has served in roles including chief planning officer and chief operating officer.
Celso is also a Boeing 737 pilot. He has a degree in economics from the Universidade de São Paulo, a degree in international relations
from the Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo and an MBA from INSEAD.
“I am honored and excited to be asked to
serve as CEO,” Celso said. “The core of GOL is our Team of Eagles; they make the difference for our Customers, and I look
