Azul Logística is accelerating its cargo operations across Latin America with the addition of four Airbus A321 freighters to its existing fleet of two aircraft. The carrier received its first A321F last year and expects deliveries beginning in 2026, with the final unit arriving in 2027. The expansion replaces its retired Boeing 737 freighter fleet and retired Embraer E195 preighters. The Brazilian carrier operates over 800 domestic flights daily and processes more than 100,000 shipments each day. Azul Logística has launched scheduled service to Santiago de Chile and Buenos Aires, with Lima and Montevideo routes planned. Double-daily domestic flights serve Manaus and Belém. The airline also handles specialized charter operations including hatching eggs and touring band equipment. The A321F expansion supports the carrier's growing e-commerce and express service focus across the region.
