Omni Táxi Aéreo announces the arrival of its newest aircraft in Brazil, the model ATR 42-500, which can carry up to 48 passengers and has a flight autonomy for approximately 7 hours.

It can also improve the comfort of travelling, through scheduled flights, reducing waiting times at airports and increasing the efficiency of operations, "commented Roberto Coimbra, CEO of the company.
