#voegol #travelingvlogs #braziltravel ### GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes Overview **History**: Founded in 2001 as Brazil's first low-cost carrier (LCC), GOL (IATA: G3) pioneered affordable air travel in Latin America. It acquired Varig's assets in 2007, expanding international reach. In 2009, it merged with VRG Linhas Aéreas, operating under dual brands (though Varig flights use GOL numbers). Post-COVID challenges led to Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2024, from which it emerged in June 2025 with plans for new routes and Boeing fleet additions. **Fleet**: All-Boeing 737 family for efficiency. As of Oct 2025: ~123-139 aircraft, including 737-700 (domestic short-haul), 737-800 (medium-haul, incl. converted freighters like BCF for cargo), and 737 MAX 8 (newer, fuel-efficient models). All feature Economy and Premium Economy cabins; no first class. Partnerships include Mercado Livre for e-commerce cargo flights. **Destinations & Network**: Serves ~75-80 spots in 11 countries.
