Gol Linhas Aéreas has announced a leadership reorganization involving the appointment of André Fehlauer as the new CEO, effective in September. Fehlauer, previously the head of Livelo, succeeds Celso Ferrer, who is stepping down after 20 years with the company. Ferrer is expected to transition to a role as the president of Boeing for Latin America and the Caribbean.

Alongside this change, Albert Perez will assume the role of president while maintaining his current duties as Chief Operating Officer. The airline describes this transition as a move toward a “new phase of value creation” intended to leverage synergies with Grupo Abra and maintain a customer-centric strategy. This management shift occurs as the airline undergoes structural changes under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United States.
