Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from SMF to Galeão Intl. Airport last minute?
Being the spontaneous type is a fantastic way to travel the world, but it's not necessarily the best method to nab a cheap flight. Consider booking your SMF to Galeão Intl. Airport journey well in advance rather than leaving it to the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. We recommend saving that spontaneity for when you reach Galeão Intl. Airport!
What airports do you fly into for Rio de Janeiro from Sacramento?
From Sacramento, you can reach Rio de Janeiro via Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. Airport (GIG), Santos Dumont Airport (SDU) and Niteroi Airport (QNT). It's a good idea to check which airport is the right option for you before making your decision. If you pick Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. Airport (GIG), it's approximately 13 kilometers northwest of the downtown area. Use the dough you save when booking your fare with Expedia to check out the city's top sights, such as Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf Mountain.
Can I change the date of my flight from SMF to Galeão Intl. Airport?
We know plans can change, so Expedia is here to help make things as easy as possible. To start, access your SMF to Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. Airport (GIG) itinerary through the Expedia Trips portal and read the fare rules to see if change fees apply.
