SAO PAULO (Reuters) -Azul is not planning on filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, the Brazilian airline's CEO told Reuters, contradicting reports which caused the carrier's shares to nosedive on Thursday. CEO John Rodgerson said in an interview that Azul was financially healthy and in "friendly negotiations" with its partners, including aircraft lessors, due to the depreciation of Brazil's real. A number of Latin American airlines have undergone Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings after the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted travel, including Aeromexico, LATAM Airlines and most recently Azul's direct competitor in Brazil, Gol.
Azul, the largest airline in Brazil by number of departures and cities served, and Viasat Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a global leader in satellite communications, today announced that seven aircraft in Azul's new Airbus A330-900neo fleet will be equipped with Viasat's trusted Ka-band in-flight connectivity solution, with the first aircraft scheduled to enter service next year.
