The special livery incorporates the Brazilian flag colors as well as the five stars of the five World Cups won by Brazil. the logojet contains the insignia of CBF on the tail surfaces and the phrase “Transportadora Oficial da Seleção Brasileira” (official transporter of the Brazilian team). The aircraft, the pictured Boeing 737-8EH PR-GUM (msn 35846), flew the Brazilian team from Goiania to Brasilia yesterday for the forthcoming FIFA Confederations Cup during the period of June 15-30, 2013.

The CBF issued this statement:

The CBF announces that on Wednesday (June 12, 2013) Seleção Brasileira arrived in Brasilia, site of the debut in Confederations Cup, on the Boeing 738-800 Next Generation Sky Interior of Gol, specially painted with the colors of Seleção.

The initiative of the airline – the official carrier of Seleção Brasileira – reinforces this act, the meaning of partnership.

Gol managed to have the first of three aircraft alluding to Seleção ready before the Confederations Cup. This was the result of compromise and teamwork, characteristics that unite us even more.

Besides the flights of Seleção, this aircraft will integrate the operations of Gol, which will allow fans to also be able to know this special tribute.

President José Maria is thrilled with the results produced by the partnership between the Brazilian Football Confederation and the company.
