Placar Air boosts services for Brazilian clubs; Palmeiras charters again | OneFootball

Palmeiras president Leila Pereira founded Placar Linhas Aéreas S/A in October 2022 and has since been working on expanding the airline.

Charter flights for clubs

In recent months, after receiving ANAC certification, the company has stepped up charter operations for Brazilian football clubs such as Red Bull Bragantino, Mirassol, Vasco, Grêmio, among others.

This week, Santos used a Placar Linhas Aéreas aircraft to travel to Ecuador for its Conmebol Sudamericana match.

Palmeiras resumes chartering flights

NOSSO PALESTRA has learned that, because of this, Palmeiras has resumed chartering flights for matches to be played outside the state of São Paulo.

The Alviverde may occasionally use Placar Linhas Aéreas’ services again, but the focus of the Palmeiras president’s airline is to expand its services to other clubs across Brazil.

Second plane and purchase of a new aircraft

NP reported in December that the second aircraft, the same model as the previous one (Embraer E190-E2), arrived in Brazil in December. Since then, it has been awaiting authorization to operate in Brazil and internationally.

The model, currently registered as PS-YVL, was purchased from an African airline that went bankrupt during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Leila Pereira is still focused on expanding the company and is already planning the purchase of a third plane for the fleet. The Palmeiras president is looking for a good opportunity to negotiate the purchase and increase the number of charters, especially for football clubs.
