Has anyone ever heard of or used this airline - VARIG-GOL AIRLINES?
I came across a cheap fare $302 from Orlando to SDQ on this airline throgh onetravel.com. I did a search and it appears to be a Brazilian based airline. The price is right, but there are always other factors involved when dealing with less known carriers.
Yeah its a brazillian airline i thought they only did domestic. Flights in brazill. Ive flown them in brazil. They seemed ok to me
I've flown on them a couple of times. Planes were modern, flew on time, got a nice little snack, and the flight attendants were pretty dog gone good looking.
Going through TSA checkpoint was a PITA. Other than that, they ain't bad.
Used them domestic in Brasil. They are known for newer planes and hot attendants. In Brasil they do a lot of puddle jumping with flights going to several cities. This causes a lot of waiting and a lot of taking off and landing if you are aboard for the entire trip. They are also known for good prices.
Good to hear they're pretty legit. If the price is right ,I'll book with them then.
That's what you need to do. What can be aggravating to some, is no problem with others. It's a good airline, modern planes, nice attendants, but I don't think I'd use them again just because of their baggage limits and the TSA hassles.Quote:

I had to purchase a one way ticket to rio, then later had to purchase a one way return ticket through a different airline.
First time using them was a great experience, but last time was fucking a nightmare
