BRA Transportes Aéreos

In July 2007 BRA, started a code-share agreement with OceanAir, substantially increasing their domestic destinations. On 6 November 2007, BRA announced that it would suspend all of its flights starting on 7 November and leave all of its 1,000+ employees under mandatory notice of termination of employment.

In 2009, the airline was back in operations with charter flights with a solo Boeing 737-300 ex-Gol Linhas Aéreas, but it was sold to Puma Air, a Brazilian airline that started operating jets in 2010. On June 18, 2009, BRA had its authorization to operate non-regular passenger flights renewed for one year by the Brazilian Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC). Therefore, BRA operated flights on behalf of other airlines or parties, as contracted.
