The Court of Justice of Minas Gerais (TJMG) has scheduled a new administrative hearing for September 23rd that could be decisive for the future of 123milhas. The meeting, which will be broadcast live on YouTube, will bring together representatives of the company, judicial administrators, and the Public Prosecutor's Office to discuss the course of the judicial reorganization process, which is already considered the largest in Brazilian history in terms of the number of creditors, involving more than 800,000 people and a debt exceeding R$ 2.3 billion. 

The hearing will not have final decision-making power, but will serve to align procedures and discuss the possibility of a new payment agreement to be presented to creditors. The complexity of the case, which has been dragging on since August 2023, requires careful planning for the next phase, which includes the publication of the official list of creditors and the definition of how the voting on the recovery plan will be carried out, an unprecedented logistical challenge for the Brazilian justice system. 

For the more than 800,000 creditors, the hearing represents a moment of great expectation. 123milhas has already warned that, in the event of bankruptcy, the sale of its assets would cover only 0.2% of the total debt, which would leave the vast majority of customers without any kind of compensation. The approval of the judicial reorganization plan, therefore, emerges as the only viable alternative for the company to continue operating and, over time, be able to honor its commitments. 

The 123milhas case transcends the business sphere and becomes a landmark for the tourism sector and consumer protection in Brazil. The crisis exposed the fragility of business models based on sales with large advance payments and aggressive discounts, raising an important debate about the need for greater regulation and mechanisms to guarantee consumer safety. How the justice system handles this process could set new precedents for future cases. 

Despite the uncertain scenario, 123milhas affirms that it remains operational and, since the beginning of the recovery process, has already transported almost 3 million passengers, seeking to reinforce confidence among clients and partners. The hearing on September 23rd will be a fundamental chapter in this long journey, and its developments will be closely followed by the entire market, which awaits a solution to the crisis that has shaken the travel sector in the country.
