Brazil's second largest airline was founded by the owner of American JetBlue in 2008.
Azul's business model is to operate highly frequented routes between major Brazilian cities and connections to small towns and rural areas.
It is in the smaller cities that Azul has a virtual monopoly within Brazil due to the operation of small turboprop aircraft. No other airline serves such a large number of destinations in Brazil.
