SÃO PAULO, May 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (NYSE: GOL and B3: GOLL4), Brazil's largest domestic airline, announces today preliminary air traffic figures for the month of April 2020, compared to the same period in 2019.

During the month of March, GOL adjusted its network in both domestic and international markets to account for the decrease in customer demand as Brazilians took responsible steps to socially distance. As the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic reduced demand, starting on Saturday, March 28, the network was reformulated to guarantee essential service to Brazilian capitals from the São Paulo International Airport in Guarulhos. This essential network operated throughout the month of April and resulted in a decrease of domestic flights of 93% and, with the exception of repatriation flights, a temporary halt of all international flights. GOL's strong and disciplined capacity and yield management, on top of our highly adaptable and flexible single-aircraft type fleet, allowed us to adjust GOL's flight offering in an agile and rational way.

April 2020 Highlights:

\|	GOL's total demand (RPK) fell by 93.6%. GOL's total flight offer (ASK) decreased 93.5% and the load factor was 79.5%.
\|	In the domestic market, demand (RPK) decreased by 92.7% and supply (ASK) was down 92.6%. GOL's domestic load factor was 79.8%.
\|	In the international market, GOL's demand (RPK) and supply (ASK) decreased by 99.5% and 99.2%, respectively, and international load factor was 56.3%.
