FRIDAY, 09 AUGUST 2013
Following the formalisation of its papers with the Nigerian government, Sao Paulo based low cost Brazilian airline-GOL is to begin flight operations between Lagos and Sao Paulo.

  An official of the carrier who spoke to The Guardian in Lagos on Tuesday disclosed that the Ministry of Aviation and all other relevant agencies had given their approval.

  The carrier operates state-of-the-art Boeing aircraft with a new and modern fleet, GOL’s operations are differentiated by reduced maintenance costs and low fuel consumption, which translates into high use and efficiency rates for the company.

  It would be recalled that GOL purchased VARIG in 2007 and for eleven years, GOL has been driving the Brazilian aviation market to develop, always presenting innovative and pioneering products, services and processes. The firm has made air travel in Brazil and in South America affordable.

  The airline currently offers extensive and convenient route network in South America and the Caribbean, with almost 950 flights a day to over 63 destinations, domestic and international, in 14 countries.

  Combined with operational partnerships with foreign and domestic companies, GOL’s route network is among the best for clients that want to travel to Brazil, within Brazil, or from Brazil.

  GOL can offer such efficient services because it has a business model based on structures, systems and controls that enhance the quality, high technology, safety and standardization of its fleet, as well as the motivation and productivity of its team. With a constant focus on reducing costs, the company’s strategy is defined by profitable growth through a low-cost and high quality structure for providing service to clients.

  In accordance with its corporate objectives, GOL once again revolutionsed Brazilian aviation when it acquired VRG Linhas Aéreas, operating the VARIG brand, on March 28, 2007. The acquisition was one of the most important steps in GOL’s history, allowing it to expand its market coverage and operating capacity.
