The alliance, which will run for the next ten years, aims <\/span><strong style=\"color: #666666; font-size: 14px;\">to consolidate the position of both airlines on routes between Europe and Brazil<\/strong><span style=\"color: #666666; font-size: 14px;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the terms of the agreement, <strong>Air France-KLM and GOL <\/strong>will guarantee each other <strong>exclusivity on routes between Europe and Brazil<\/strong>, thereby strengthening their commercial cooperation. This strategic decision comes at a time when <strong>the two airlines already cover more than 99% of demand on these routes<\/strong>. Currently, one in five passengers travelling to Brazil with Air France or KLM continues their journey with a GOL flight, illustrating the importance of this collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The benefits of this alliance are not limited to businesses. Travellers will benefit <strong>from an optimised network covering more than 80 destinations in Europe, 45 in Brazil<\/strong> and, in the future, <strong>new arrival points in Latin America<\/strong>. In addition, the agreement provides for the extension of code-sharing, enhancing joint sales activities and <strong>offering additional benefits to customers<\/strong> via Air France-KLM&#8217;s Flying Blue and GOL&#8217;s SMILES frequent flyer programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of operations, <strong>Air France and KLM passengers will be able to connect to GOL flights beyond the main Brazilian cities<\/strong> such as S\u00e3o Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Fortaleza. Conversely, <strong>GOL travellers will be able to access the global networks of Air France and KLM<\/strong>, notably via the Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Amsterdam-Schiphol hubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>During the winter season, <strong>Air France operates 24 weekly flights to <a href=\"https:\/\/test.visit-latin-america.com\/brazil\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brazil<\/a> <\/strong>(14 to S\u00e3o Paulo, 7 to R\u00edo de Janeiro and 3 to Fortaleza), <strong>while KLM operates 14 weekly flights to Brazil<\/strong> (7 to S\u00e3o Paulo, 7 to R\u00edo de Janeiro).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><em>Source: AirFrance-KLM Group<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Air France-KLM and GOL strengthen their commercial partnership, providing more connections and enhancing travel between Europe and Latin America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":231771,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16783,8183],"tags":[9600,8545,11472,19564,11473,7547,11474,11475,8258,8637,11476,11477,9376,10598,15960,7553,9955,11478,7941,11479,11480,11481,7556,7558,11482,11483,11484,11485,11486,11487,7948,11488,7567,11489,7578,20667,7954,11490],"class_list":["post-217876","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-latam-news-en","tag-air-france-klm-2","tag-airline-2","tag-alliance-2","tag-latin-america-en","tag-amsterdam-schiphol-2","tag-brazil","tag-codeshare","tag-commercial-cooperation","tag-connectivite","tag-connectivity","tag-consolidation-2","tag-demand","tag-destination2023","tag-destination2024-2","tag-destinations-2-2","tag-europe-2","tag-exclusivity","tag-flying-blue-2","tag-fortaleza-2","tag-gol-2","tag-hubs-2","tag-joint-sales","tag-latam-2","tag-latin-america","tag-loyalty","tag-operations-2","tag-optimised-network","tag-paris-charles-de-gaulle-2","tag-partnership","tag-passenger","tag-rio-de-janeiro-2","tag-routes","tag-sao-paulo-2","tag-smiles-2","tag-travel","tag-travel-en","tag-weekly-flights","tag-winter-season"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217876","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=217876"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217876\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":231785,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217876\/revisions\/231785"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/231771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=217876"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=217876"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit-latin-america.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=217876"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
