Avianca Brasil will begin its first intercontinental service from São Paulo Guarulhos (GRU) to Miami, Florida June 23, followed by daily GRU-Santiago de Chile flights in July. Miami will be the first US destination and the second outside of Brazil, in addition to Bogota, Colombia. Avianca Brasil has operated freighter service to Miami since 2015. The new routes will be operated with Avianca Brasil’s first widebody aircraft, the Airbus A330-200. The carrier it has taken delivery of its first A330 configured with 32 business-class and 206 economy-class seats. A second aircraft is expected to be delivered shortly. Avianca Brasil president Frederico Pedreira said recently that the carrier has “grown by 15% in 2016, and we will continue to grow in 2017, but likely less than this year,” he said, adding he does not have high hopes for 2017. <br/>
