Market conditions drive international airlines away from Brazil, Airbus says

RIO DE JANEIRO - Complicated market conditions have prevented foreign airlines from launching local operations in Brazil, planemaker Airbus' head in the country told Reuters.

Airbus executive Gilberto Peralta said in an interview last week that the reluctance from international airlines to enter Brazil was mainly due to judicial uncertainty, citing a high number of legal actions taken by Brazilian customers against airlines, as well as high fuel prices. Late last year, airline lobby group IATA had urged state-run oil company Petrobras to reduce fuel costs, calling kerosene prices in the South American nation"excessively high."
