Choose your airport based on your trip
GIG (Galeão) and SDU (Santos Dumont) are different airports. Compare both if your route allows it: the itinerary, layover, arrival time and final transfer may matter more than the base fare. Always check the arrival and departure airport codes before booking. See how to arrange your airport transfer →
Three ways to put your trip together
You can explore dates on Google Flights, compare the fare on the airline's website and compare packages on Decolar or CVC. These are examples of search channels, with no endorsement or commercial agreement.
A fair comparison
| Item | What to note |
|---|---|
| Flight | Schedule, layovers, airport, baggage and changes |
| Accommodation | Nights, occupancy, location, breakfast and cancellation |
| Transfers | Whether they're included and where the meeting point is |
| Payments | Currency, fees, installments and final cost |
| Responsible party | Who handles changes, delays or problems |
Add up flight, hotel, transfers and services separately to compare against the package total. A package is only worth it if the combination and its terms fit your trip.
Details that change the decision
A long layover can cost you a vacation day; an overnight flight may require an extra hotel night. Check that children are listed with their correct age, that your carry-on meets size limits and that the provider allows changes. Transportation and passenger-service conditions can be checked with ANAC and in the fare you purchased.
