São Paulo, September 12, 2022 – Azul S.A., “Azul”, (B3: AZUL4, NYSE: AZUL), the largest airline in Brazil by departures and number of cities served, announces today its preliminary traffic results for August 2022.

Consolidated passenger traffic (RPKs) increased 21.5% compared to August 2021 on a capacity (ASKs) increase of 16.5%, resulting in a load factor of 81.3%, an increase of 3.4 percentage points compared to the same period in 2021.

“In August we saw, once again, a robust demand environment in Azul’s network. Booking trends remain strong and average fares continue to be well above 2019 levels and we expect this revenue momentum to continue,” says John Rodgerson, Azul’s CEO.

Azul S.A. (B3: AZUL4, NYSE: AZUL), the largest airline in Brazil by number of flight departures and cities served, offers around 900 daily flights to over 150 destinations. With an operating fleet of around 160 aircraft and more than 13,000 crewmembers, Azul has a network of more than 300 non-stop routes. In 2020 Azul was awarded best airline in the world by TripAdvisor, the first time a Brazilian Flag Carrier ranked number one in the Traveler’s Choice Awards.

One-fare paying passenger transported one kilometer. RPK is calculated by multiplying the number of revenue passengers by the number of kilometers flown.
