Brazil plane tickets & flights
Hopefully this page will be of good use to you when planning your Brazil trip. Most possibly you will go on a leisure trip, but as the economy of this country emerges, so does the importance of business travel. We are trying to satisfy the needs of all categories of travelers with this little guide to Brazil air travel opportunities. The country has quite a big number of airports on the southeast, but less in the north where it is scarcely populated. By air you can also fly in to north-central Brazil, where the famous Amazon rainforest is.
Domestic flights Numerous between large and small cities as well. The big airlines offer you the advantages of the fashionable and efficient online booking systems, but small local or regional carriers might not even have good online presence. For understanding which airline flies where, please consult the list of airlines, presented a little bit lower. Low cost airlines have appeared in Brazil too, offering budget air travel chances for the students, backpackers and low-budget travelers wanting to visit the big cities. These possibilities are modest, though, if we compare them to what exists in Europe and North America.
International flights Brazil is well connected to Europe and the United States. Other aerial routes link it to Latin American countries and Africa especially. If you are travelling to Brazil from Europe, then Portugal, France or Germany will be among your best choices when searching for a carrier to take you there (Lufthansa, TAP Portugal and Air France have very good links to the "country of samba"). TAM is Brazil's flag carrier, while VARIG and Gol are other important ones that every traveler must verify for schedules and fares.
