SAO PAULO, May 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- GOL Linhas Aereas
Inteligentes S.A. (BM&FBovespa: GOLL4 and NYSE: GOL) (S&P:
B, Fitch: B-, Moody's: B3), the largest low-cost and low-fare
airline in Latin America, hereby
announces that it has filed a formal request with the National
Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC) to expand its operations at Viracopos
Airport, in Campinas. The company expects the beginning of six new
daily flights (five to Santos
Dumont/RJ and one to Brasilia) on September
1st, 2013.
"With the expansion project at Campinas airport, we identified
an opportunity for the company to grow in the region, absorbing the
demand from cities such as Limeira, Jundiai, Piracicaba, Itu and
Sorocaba, among others," explains Eduardo
Bernardes, Gol's Commercial Officer. "Our aim is not to get
passengers from Sao Paulo to
depart via Viracopos, but to make the entire network of the company
and its partners available to customers from Campinas and the
region. In order to do this, we are already analyzing the
possibility of offering buses departing from some of the cities
located near Campinas, to facilitate the arrival at the airport.
This measure will provide a comfortable, safe and practical arrival
of our customers, as all the buses will be equipped with wifi, and
the client may, for example, make the check-in."
In addition to these destinations, currently the company's
customers can depart directly from Campinas to Brasilia, Belo
Horizonte, Curitiba and Galeao, in Rio de Janeiro, and to all of GOL's other
destinations through connecting flights.
