With all this unfavorable scenario, the company is carrying out a fleet reduction plan. The total number of aircraft whose leasing contracts will be terminated is 23 jets.
The returns will be on models 737-700 (five units), 737-800 (five units), nine Embraer 170 and four Embraer 190.
The company recently filed for bankruptcy and its creditors, affected by the measure, are having to renegotiate their contracts and debts which are expected to be affected by the company's legal and economic conditions.
