Another three aircraft are expected to be adapted by the\u00a0end of 2020, delivering a unique and focused solution to the Company\u2019s e-commerce customers. Two of the four planes have already been dedicated to an e-commerce provider for a period of at least six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The four E-jets will join the Company\u2019s two dedicated Boeing 737-400 freighters, for a total of six aircraft&nbsp;dedicated for Azul Cargo Express, Azul\u2019s cargo business unit. In addition, the Company\u2019s&nbsp;dedicated fleet capabilities are further expanded by its five ATR 72-600 Quick-Change aircraft. These dedicated cargo aircraft,&nbsp;together with belly capacity on Azul\u2019s passenger network, the largest in Brazil, gives the Company\u2019s customers&nbsp;exclusive access to the broadest, fastest and most efficient range of logistics services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to continue diversifying our business model with the adaptation of these four Embraer aircraft.\u00a0The size, range, and performance of the E195, gives it the perfect combination of payload capacity, volume capacity and low trip-cost economics allowing fast and efficient logistics access all around Brazil. We are seeing record demand for the services provided by Azul Cargo Express and are pleased to innovate to further meet the needs of our customers. With the combination of our dedicated aircraft, belly capacity on the largest domestic network in Brazil, and our extensive ground partnerships, we are ready to meet the growing need of all our logistics and especially all our e-commerce customers.
