Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to fly from Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. Airport (GIG) to CGH?
Gol operates a direct flight leaving GIG at 12:55PM and reaching CGH at 2:05PM — a travel time of 1 hour and 10 minutes. Pick the seat that's right for you, pack some things to keep you entertained and the time will rush by.
Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Galeão Intl. Airport to CGH last minute?
Booking your flight from GIG to Congonhas Airport (CGH) at the last minute could save you money if you strike it lucky and find a real bargain. However, fares don't typically get cheaper closer to the departure date. If you procrastinate, flights could also be booked up or the best seats taken (we hope you like the middle seat!). If you don't want to hedge your bets, book well in advance of when you want to leave. It's worth noting that some of the best deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your preferred airline hasn't released its fares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia all the time.
What airports do you fly into for Sao Paulo from Rio de Janeiro?
With Congonhas Airport (CGH), Guarulhos - Governor Andre Franco Montoro Intl. Airport (GRU) and Viracopos - Campinas Intl. Airport (CPQ) to select from, journeying from Rio de Janeiro to Sao Paulo is a cinch. The city's busiest terminal, Congonhas Airport (CGH), is roughly 10 kilometers south of the center. Besides ticket costs, consider factors like the ease of getting from the airport and the distance to your hotel when deciding where to land. Get your Sao Paulo trip off to a flying start by discovering Municipal Theatre of São Paulo and Ibirapuera Park.
What are the most popular departure times for flights from Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. Airport (GIG) to São Paulo/Congonhas–Deputado Freitas Nobre Airport?
The most popular departure times for journeys from Galeão Intl. Airport to São Paulo/Congonhas–Deputado Freitas Nobre Airport fall between 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM on Gol. A good tip is to jet out in the morning. The earlier you travel, the better your odds of a delay-free flight as air traffic hasn't yet built up.

Sometimes life gets in the way of plans, so Expedia is here to help make amending your flight as easy as possible. First, access your GIG to Congonhas Airport (CGH) itinerary through the Expedia Trips portal and check the fare rules and restrictions about what changes you can make. If you booked your airfare in the last 24 hours, some airlines will let you cancel without charge and book new flights.
