Azul and JetBlue Announce Codeshare Agreement

Azul (AZUL) (B3: AZUL4, NYSE: AZUL) today announced its new partnership with JetBlue Airways through a unilateral codeshare agreement. Azul will place its "AD" code on JetBlue flights between several destinations and JetBlue's focus cities in Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL) and Orlando (MCO). From both Florida gateways Azul operates nonstop service to the airline's hub at São Paulo, Brazil's Viracopos International Airport (VCP) and Recife (REC).

Customers purchasing a codeshare itinerary will benefit from having a single ticket issued by Azul that includes flights operated by both Azul and JetBlue and the customer friendly convenience of thru check-in and baggage transfer.

"The agreement with JetBlue is an important addition to Azul's international portfolio, expanding our service to popular destinations served by JetBlue. Our customers can now make fast and convenient connections to several cities in the US, such as Boston and New York (JFK)," said David Neeleman, Founder and Chairman of Azul. "I am extremely proud that both Azul and JetBlue are in the top 5 of the worlds' best airlines as rated by TripAdvisor so I am very excited to be able to bring these industry leading services together for our customers."

"We're pleased that customers booking Azul travel will be able to benefit from convenient connections through JetBlue's growing list of destinations from our Florida focus cities," said Robin Hayes, president and CEO, JetBlue.

In 2017, Azul was elected as the world's third best airline by TripAdvisor and was named for the seventh consecutive time by Skytrax World Airline Awards as the "Best Low-Cost Airline in South America" and for the second time as the "Best Staff in South America."
