About Azul Brazilian Airlines

Azul Brazilian Airlines has built its network differently from its Brazilian rivals. Its main hub is Viracopos Airport in Campinas, outside Sao Paulo, supported by Belo Horizonte and Recife, and it serves many small and mid-sized Brazilian cities that other airlines do not reach, using regional jets and turboprops alongside larger aircraft. That makes it a useful option for itineraries into the Brazilian interior. Long-haul flights go to the United States and Europe and have business class as well as economy. Azul is not a member of a global alliance, though it has codeshare partners abroad.

If a client needs to reach a smaller Brazilian city, run the search on IATA.co and see which carriers come back. Azul fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. The booking portal and the flights API both return live fares, and you pay from a prepaid balance. Baggage and change terms depend on the fare and are listed in the fare rules before you confirm.

Azul Brazilian Airlines airline codes explained

Azul Brazilian Airlines uses the two-letter IATA airline code AD and the three-letter ICAO code AZU. The IATA code AD is the one shown on tickets, fare displays and booking screens, while the ICAO code AZU is used in air traffic control and flight planning.

Azul Brazilian Airlines is a hybrid carrier, based in Brazil, operating mainly from Campinas (VCP). It is not part of a global airline alliance.

Booking Azul Brazilian Airlines fares as a travel agent

Travel agents book Azul Brazilian Airlines fares on IATA.co without their own IATA accreditation. Activate an agency account, top up a prepaid balance, then search live AD fares in the booking portal: the price, baggage and fare rules are shown with each offer before you confirm, and the amount is deducted from your balance. Azul Brazilian Airlines results appear whenever our flight suppliers return them for your route and dates, so what you can book follows live supplier content rather than a direct airline deal.

Developers and agencies can run the same Azul Brazilian Airlines search from their own site, app or back office through the IATA.co flights API.
