'''Avianca Brasil S.A.'''

==History==
===OceanAir===
[[File:OceanAir F100 Curitiba.jpg|thumb|A former OceanAir [[Fokker 100]] taxiing at [[Afonso Pena International Airport]] in 2007]]

The airline was established on 30 June 1998 as an [[air taxi]] company to operate services for oil companies in the [[Campos Basin]]. Its name was then ''OceanAir'' and began to operate scheduled services in 2002, between São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, [[Macaé]] and [[Campos dos Goytacazes|Campos]]. Soon afterwards, it became better known to the public with a scheduled flight (no longer operated) connecting [[São Paulo–Congonhas Airport]] in São Paulo and [[Santos Dumont Airport]] in Rio de Janeiro via [[São Paulo–Guarulhos International Airport]], enabling international passengers from both cities easy access to the country's largest international hub from those cities' more convenient central airports. At the time, OceanAir's fare between São Paulo's airports was cheaper than a taxi and on par with a luxury bus ride.

In 2004, [[Synergy Group]], the owner of the airline, bought the Colombian airline [[Avianca]], which was undergoing judicial reorganization. As a result, OceanAir became a feeder for Avianca's flights into Guarulhos. This partnership between the two airlines increased the flow of passengers between Colombia and Brazil. Synergy Group also bought [[VIP Ecuador|VIP]] as part of a strategy to create a continent-wide airline under the Avianca brand. In November 2005, a joint venture formed by OceanAir (49%) and ''Fondo de Inversiones Sustentables'' (51%) created a new Peruvian airline called [[Wayraperú]], but the airline suspended operations a few months later until it was re-established later in 2018.

OceanAir started operating international flights in 2007 with three [[Boeing 767-300ER]]s and a [[Boeing 757-200]], but by April 2008, the flights were discontinued because of increase in operating costs. Since then, the airline has concentrated its efforts on the Brazilian domestic market only. 5 [[Airbus A330]]s and 30 [[Airbus A320]]s were ordered in 2010, a contract worth [[US$]] 2,5 billion. With this fleet growth, Efromovich intended to control 15% of the Brazilian air market in the next decade, including routes to Mexico, Colombia, Africa and the United States.<ref>Exame Magazine, 18 December 2006</ref>

===Avianca Brasil===
[[File:A318 Avianca Brasil (31270750430).jpg|thumb|A former Avianca Brasil [[Airbus A318-100]] at [[Salgado Filho Porto Alegre International Airport]] in 2012]]
[[File:A320 AVIANCA PR-ONZ (17088774068).jpg|thumb|A former Avianca Brasil [[Airbus A320-200]] at [[Salgado Filho International Airport]] in 2015]]

On 9 October 2009, Synergy announced that [[TACA Airlines]] and Avianca would merge. This merger increased OceanAir's feeder operations, already implemented with Avianca in [[São Paulo-Guarulhos International Airport|São Paulo]], to include TACA in São Paulo, [[Rio de Janeiro–Galeão International Airport]], [[Santos Dumont Airport]], [[Salgado Filho International Airport]] in [[Porto Alegre]] and [[Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport]] in [[Brasília]].

On 26 March 2010, Germán Efromovich announced the rebranding of OceanAir as ''Avianca Brasil''. However, ''OceanAir Linhas Aéreas'' remained as the legal name of the airline.<ref>{{Cite news|first=Eduardo|last=Laguna|title=OceanAir passa a se chamar Avianca|url=http://www.valoronline.com.br/?online/transportes/63/6228162/oceanair-passa-a-se-chamar-avianca&scrollX=0&scrollY=0&tamFonte=|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120918043503/http://www.valoronline.com.br/?online/transportes/63/6228162/oceanair-passa-a-se-chamar-avianca&scrollX=0&scrollY=0&tamFonte=|url-status=dead|archive-date=18 September 2012|publisher=Valor Online|location=São Paulo|date=26 April 2010|access-date=27 April 2010|language=pt}}</ref> This allowed the Synergy group to further align the operations of OceanAir and Avianca.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Jardim|first=Lauro|title=Panorama: Radar: Aviação|newspaper=Veja|pages=53|date=17 March 2010|language=pt}}</ref> The first aircraft with the new name started operations on 27 April 2010.<ref>{{Cite news|publisher=Avianca|title=OceanAir agora é Avianca|url=http://www.avianca.com.br/empresa/site/quemsomos.asp|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20100429091734/http://www.avianca.com.br/empresa/site/quemsomos.asp|url-status=dead|archive-date=29 April 2010|date=27 April 2010|access-date=27 April 2010|language=pt}}</ref> The only notable differences between the aircraft of Avianca Colombia and those of Avianca Brasil are the latter's Brazilian registrations and a small Brazilian flag under their cockpit windows.

On 10 November 2010, [[Star Alliance]] decided to accept [[AviancaTaca Holding]] to join the network as a member airline. However, Avianca Brasil was rejected at the time due to its outdated IT platforms and an objection by [[TAM Linhas Aéreas]], which since left Star Alliance to join [[Oneworld]] after merging with [[LAN Airlines]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Will an Azul-TAP partnership skew the alliance dynamics in Brazil as Avianca Brazil joins Star?|url=http://centreforaviation.com/analysis/will-an-azul-tap-partnership-skew-the-alliance-dynamics-in-brazil-as-avianca-brazil-joins-star-231949|website=CAPA Centre for Aviation|access-date=26 February 2016}}</ref> Upon TAM's exit, Avianca Brasil officially joined Star Alliance on 22 July 2015 as an affiliate.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Leiro|first1=Roberto|title=Avianca Brasil Joins Star Alliance|url=http://airwaysnews.com/blog/2015/07/22/avianca-brasil-joins-star-alliance/|website=Airways News|access-date=26 February 2016|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150914073350/http://airwaysnews.com/blog/2015/07/22/avianca-brasil-joins-star-alliance/|archive-date=14 September 2015}}</ref>

On 11 October 2016, the airline took delivery of the first of 8 [[Airbus A320neo]]s being leased from [[GE Capital Aviation Services|GECAS]].<ref>{{cite journal|title=Avianca Brazil|journal=Airliner World|issue=December 2016|page=17|date=25 November 2016}}</ref> Independent from [[Avianca]], the airline increased its [[market share]] from 3% in 2009 to 14% in 2018, becoming Brazil's fourth-largest carrier.<ref name=AIN12dec2018/>

On 20 August 2019, [[Star Alliance]] announced Avianca Brasil's exit from the alliance from 1 September 2019. The departure, however, didn't affect Avianca's membership.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.staralliance.com/en/news-article?newsArticleId=443302063&groupId=20184|title=Avianca Brasil to Exit Star Alliance|publisher=Star Alliance|date=19 August 2019|access-date=25 August 2019}}</ref>

==Corporate affairs==
Even though the legal name of the airline remained as ''OceanAir'', it was re-branded as Avianca since it was owned by [[Synergy Group]], which owns [[Avianca Holdings]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Avianca Costa Rica {{!}} Book Flights and Save |url=https://www.alternativeairlines.com/avianca-costa-rica |access-date=2023-01-22 |website=www.alternativeairlines.com |language=en-GB}}</ref> The original [[Avianca]] of Colombia and Avianca Brasil remained separate legal entities, but in February 2017, it was reported that Avianca Holdings planned to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals to fold Avianca Brasil into Avianca Holdings.<ref>{{cite web|title=Avianca Holdings: United Air partnership and Synergy infusion raise more questions than answers|url=https://centreforaviation.com/analysis/avianca-holdings-united-air-partnership-and-synergy-infusion-raise-more-questions-than-answers-326588|website=CAPA|date=15 February 2017|access-date=16 February 2016}}</ref> Its current CEO, Frederico Pedreira, took office in April 2016.
