Azul, Brazil's largest airline by the number of cities it serves, is moving its U.S. listing from NYSE American to the main New York Stock Exchange. According to Rio Times, trading under the ticker AZUL is expected to begin on July 9, 2026.

Each American Depositary Share represents two common shares, while the Brazilian-listed stock continues to trade locally. The upgrade follows the carrier's exit from bankruptcy protection after a financial restructuring.

Moving to the main exchange could give the airline access to a broader investor base and greater visibility. Azul's financial performance after the restructuring is expected to be watched closely in the coming quarters.
