Varig (Viação Aérea RIo Grandense) is an airline owned by Gol Transportes Aéreos based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Until recently, it was Brazil’s leading international airline. In 2005, the airline went into judicial reorganization (similar to bankruptcy protection) and in 2006 downsized substantially, making it the second largest airline in Brazil, combined with Gol. Varig was the first airline in Brazil, established on May 7, 1927 at the Porto Alegre Commercial Association meeting. It was there that Otto Ernst Meyer, a German immigrant, signed the certificate declaring Varig an airline company. Varig’s first plane was a nine-passenger Dornier Wal flying boat. Its first employee, the Hungarian Ruben Berta, later became the airline’s President and led the airline through great expansion until his death in 1966. The airline started operations on 15 July 1927. Varig’s first flight was from Porto Alegre to Rio Grande, stopping in Pelotas. It originally operated local services in southern Brazil, but added its first international route to Montevideo on 5 August 1942. Transatlantic services were started in February 1965, when the military government decided to shutdown Panair do Brasil, the country’s flag carrier up until then. The airline took over the giant REAL consortium in 1961, making it the largest airline in South America. It acquired a controlling interest in Cruzeiro do Sul in June 1975, which was fully integrated into Varig in January 1993.
