Achieving Elite Status in Azul Fidelidade in 2026

To become an Elite member in Azul Fidelidade in 2026, it's essential to plan and choose the right strategy.

## Categories in Azul Fidelidade

To achieve a category in Azul Fidelidade, you need to accumulate points or qualifying segments during the year of exercise, which runs from January 1st to December 31st.

It's worth noting that, as shown in the image above, you can also achieve a category by being a holder of an Azul Itaú card or a subscriber to certain club plans.

## How to Accumulate Points and Trechos Qualificáveis

You can accumulate points and trechos in the following ways:

### Points Qualificáveis

You can accumulate points qualificáveis by:

- Spending R$ 1.00 on flights and services on Azul, such as upgrading your cabin, reserving the Azul Space, booking an advanced seat, bringing a pet on board, traveling alone, or paying for flexibility and change fees, you earn 1 Point Qualificável. - Accumulating 10 points on the Azul Itaú card in any variant, you earn 1 Point Qualificável. - Accumulating 10 points on the Club plans, you earn 1 Point Qualificável.

### Trechos

You can accumulate trechos on any trip, whether paid in reais, points, or a combination of both.

For example, if you fly from Rio de Janeiro (SDU) to São Paulo (CGH), that counts as 1 trecho. If you make a round-trip, such as Rio de Janeiro (SDU) to São Paulo (CGH) and then São Paulo (CGH) back to Rio de Janeiro (SDU), that would be 2 trechos. However, if you fly from Campinas (VCP) to João Pessoa (JPA) with a layover in Recife (REC), that would only count as 1 trecho.
