David Neeleman’s right-hand man, Maximilian Otto Urbahn was the man that the American TAP shareholder trusted. Together, in 2008 they founded Azul, the Brazilian company in which Neilman, once the majority shareholder, now has a marginal stake of 4%.

DGN Corporation (Neeleman’s company) director, Maximilian Otto Urbahn, appears to be signing the Atlantic Gateway purchase proposal, as of May 2015 Neeleman and Humberto Pedrosa made a non-binding offer to buy TAP. A document showing the works of the proposed exchange of an Airbus A350 order by Neo – but without the number of aircraft (53) it would end up buying from the US company TAP.
