Brazilian carrier GOL Linhas Aéreas will expand its domestic network this northern winter, introducing a new Manaus–Fortaleza nonstop on 12 April 2026 and increasing Boa Vista–Brasília frequencies by 42 percent from April. Announced on 23 February, the move strengthens connectivity between Brazil’s Amazonian north and its political and tourism hubs—important for both corporate and expatriate mobility.
The Manaus–Fortaleza route will operate twice weekly at launch, ramping up to a permanent weekend service by May. It offers remote-site energy and mining firms around Manaus a faster link to Ceará’s export seaport and to Fortaleza’s growing tech-outsourcing sector. Conversely, executives based in the northeast gain a direct gateway to Amazon-based agribusiness projects without transiting through São Paulo.
For international teams mapping itineraries around these new flights, VisaHQ can simplify the visa process and ensure compliance with Brazil’s entry regulations. Its online portal (https://www.visahq.com/brazil/) consolidates the latest e-visa options, passport services and document requirements, allowing mobility coordinators to sync paperwork timelines with GOL’s updated schedules effortlessly.

On Boa Vista–Brasília, GOL will grow from four to seven round-trips a week, peaking at up to 13 during high-demand periods. The additional seats provide badly needed lift for federal-government contractors, NGOs and multilateral-organisation staff who shuttle between Roraima’s border-migration hotspots and the capital for policy briefings.
GOL says both changes respond to “strong demand from corporate customers and international tourists exploring Brazil’s eco-tourism circuit.” For global-mobility teams, the network adjustments mean shorter door-to-door times, reduced overnight costs and greater scheduling flexibility for fly-in-fly-out technical specialists supporting infrastructure projects in the Amazon basin.
Travel managers should update preferred-carrier agreements and monitor fare buckets: early promotional inventory is already selling quickly ahead of Brazil’s July school holidays, when the new service overlaps with peak Patagonia charters.
