GOL Completes Nine Years of Operations

São Paulo - GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA: GOLL4 and NYSE: GOL), Latin America's largest low-cost and low-fare airline, completes nine years of regular commercial aviation operations today. During this period, the company increased its fleet from six to 109 operational aircraft and continued to popularize Brazilian air travel, revolutionizing the market by introducing fares capable of competing with the bus companies, attracting more first-time passengers and members of Brazil's new middle-class.

Today, with its GOL and VARIG brands, the group offers the most extensive and convenient route network in South America with more than 800 flights per day to 59 destinations in 9 countries.

Certain decisions were vital for the company's immediate success: operating a modern and standardized fleet of Boeing 737 New Generation aircraft, utilizing the internet as the company's main sales channel (paperless tickets), focusing on innovation and technology to boost results and investing in a highly efficient and committed team to guarantee excellence in service quality.

"We are proud to have transported more than 130 million passengers since the company was launched in 2001. Thanks to GOL, more people can travel by plane, the fastest, safest and most convenient transportation. We believe there are many more who have the conditions to fly but have not done so yet. In other words, we have a long growth trajectory ahead of us," declared Constantino de Oliveira Junior, CEO and co-founder of the company.

GOL's ninth year was marked by a series of innovations and achievements, including:

"We are studying opportunities for further expanding our operations, launching flights in both the domestic market and high-traffic international centers," concluded Oliveira Junior.
