The following financial information, unless stated otherwise, is presented in Brazilian reais and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Financial and Operating Highlights § EBITDA reached R$1.1 billion, with a margin of 25.2%, and operating income of R$441.2 million, representing a 10.6% margin. § Operating revenue reached R$4.2 billion, down 2.3% compared to 2Q23, mainly due the impact of the Rio Grande do Sul floods in May and the temporary reduction in our international capacity, which fell 8.0% year over year. Without these impacts, we estimate that our top-line revenues would have been above 2Q23. § CASK in 2Q24 was R$34.18 cents, a reduction of 1.8% compared to 2Q23, as a result of our moreoperational efficient operationgains and the higher utilization of our next-generation aircraft, partially offset by the 5.3% average depreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar, 1.4% higher fuel prices, and a 4.2% inflation over the last 12 months. § Passenger traffic (RPK) increased 3.9% over a capacity increase of 3.4%, resulting in a load factor of 80.3%. 2Q24 Highlights 2Q24 2Q23¹ Change 1H24 1H23¹ Change Total operating revenue (R$ million) 4,172.7 4,269.4 -2.3% 8,851.2 8,747.7 1.2% Operating income (R$ million) 441.2 591.9 (150.7) 1,241.9 1,054.3 187.6 Operating margin (%) 10.6% 13.9% -3.3 p.p. 14.0% 12.1% +2.0 p.p.

In the quarter, we continued to deleverage and paid down over R$1.5 billion in current and deferred leases and debt amortizations. § Azul's leverage ratio measured as net debt to LTM EBITDA was 4.5x, solely due to the 11.7% end of period depreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar in the quarter, which impacted our dollar-denominated debt. Considering an end-of-period exchange rate of R$5.00, Azul's leverage ratio would have been 3.75x, flat compared to 1Q24. § Booking trends in the third quarter have been very encouraging, with an acceleration in corporate demand, leading to an increase in fares. We expect this trend to accelerate into the second half of the year, our strongest period seasonally. 1 Second Quarter Results 2024 Management Comments First, I wish to express solidarity with Voepass and everyone involved in the tragedy that occurred last Friday. We offer them our condolences and support during this difficult time. I would also like to thank our Crewmembers for all their passion and dedication during 2Q24. Our strong culture has been essential as we successfully navigated the quarter and some of its challenges. In May, the state of Rio Grande do Sul was impacted by severe flooding. We were deeply saddened by the loss of lives, displacement of people, and widespread destruction in the region. Once again, our Crewmembers and Clients stepped up, contributing over 3,000 tons in donations, which we delivered safely and swiftly to those who needed them most. Also, Porto Alegre airport was forced to close, with
