A GOL Linhas Aéreas inaugurated this Monday (08/08) its own service structure at Dom Ricardo Weberberger Airport, in Barreiras, a city located in the western region of Bahia.
GOL's operation with a fixed base at the airport in the interior of Bahia will make boarding procedures for Customers even more agile, providing a smooth and complete travel experience.
The inauguration event of the GOL space in Barreiras was attended by Emerson Cardoso, deputy mayor of the city; Roberto Carvalho, secretary of Industry, Commerce and Tourism of the city; Denisson de Oliveira, Director of SEINFRA-BA Terminals; and Ciro Camargo, manager of Institutional and Governmental Relations at GOL.
A special speech was given during the boarding of customers from Barreiras to Salvador and Brasília: “Today we opened the GOL base at Barreiras Airport and we are very happy to have you participate in this moment. Our flights in partnership with VOE depart four times a week to Brasília and Salvador and, from there, to more than 35 domestic and international destinations operated by GOL. Keep counting on us to take you around Brazil and the world with the punctuality and comfort you are looking for when flying”.
One of the largest economic centers and the main educational and technological hub in Bahia, the municipality, as well as other squares in the region, has four weekly flights by the Company with round trips to Salvador International Airport — Deputy Luís Eduardo Magalhães -, and to Brasilia International Airport.
With boarding and disembarking times that favor both corporate engers and those traveling on leisure, GOL's base in the city only reinforces the Company's connectivity purpose, connecting the interior of Bahia to all parts of Brazil from the bases of Salvador and the Federal District.
“GOL's presence with its own operating structure and the presence of employees at the counter will provide an even more complete experience for our Customers in the region, facilitating service, check-in mechanics and, most importantly, enabling greater connectivity in the region of Western Bahia with other parts of Brazil and the world”, points out Ciro Camargo, manager of Institutional and Governmental Relations at GOL.
“GOL already operates Barreiras/Brasília and Barreiras/Salvador flights in our municipality. Now, we are even happier with the inauguration of this new structure, which will allow service with employees and the GOL system starting this month. It is a pleasure to see a company of this size operating directly in our city. The initiative will contribute positively to the expansion of development and economic strengthening of our municipality and our region”, highlights Zito Barbosa, mayor of Barreiras.
Customers departing from Barreiras will have access to 35 national and international destinations covered by the Company across the country. “The implementation of a GOL base in Barreiras provides engers with comfort and safety, which consequently reinforces tourism activity”, declares the State Secretary for Tourism, Maurício Bacelar.

“GOL's new structure in the municipality reinforces all the success of the business model that VOE has built together with the company in several locations in the country. We are very pleased to be able to participate in this evolution, providing GOL customers in Barreiras and region with a complete experience, with services from ticket purchase, check-in to boarding carried out within GOL’s quality standards”, comments Eduardo Busch, CEO of VOE.
