Brazil: A Large Market Experiencing Vigorous Growth
33 airlines operate in Brazil, from regular and non-regular carriers to international, national and regional domestic airlines and airfreight carriers.
The Brazilian fleet comprises 9,800 units, of which:
• 4,000 private-use aircraft
• 950 helicopters
• 700 executive jets
53% growth in domestic passenger traffic was achieved by the commercial aviation industry between 2004 and 2006.
Infraero manages 68 airports throughout Brazil.
More than 1,000 companies are taking advantage of this growing market and supplying products and services to the commercial aviation industry.
Continuous growth of the Brazilian economy has intensified the use of these aircraft and led to an increasing need for maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO).
