I flew on a TRIP ATR-42 from REC to FEN a few years ago. It's almost like riding on a jackhammer (britadeira). . . ok, I exaggerated a bit. . .

Regardless, nice to see TRIP expanding (that's a lot of planes for TRIP), and bringing the ATR-72-500s to the country. More to spot!

TRIP's REC-FEN and NAT-FEN are one of their most popular routes. Nice to see TRIP expansion.

The funny thing I noticed is that the airline is called TRIP (Transportes Regionais do Interior Paulista - Regional Transport of the São Paulo State interior) and the only destination in the State is CPQ!!
Has the name changed to just "TRIP"?

The main reason is because TRIP was bought by Caprioli Group in Brazil which has given the airline a financial boost. Caprioli Group is, for example, the owner of the rights to operate CPQ-CGH and GRU-CPQ shuttle services.
