Cheap Flights from Sao Paulo to Abu Dhabi — $516

São Paulo–Guarulhos International (GRU) is the city’s main international hub, serving most long-haul and full-service carriers alongside some low-cost operators. Located about 25–30 km (30–50 minutes by car) northeast of downtown, transfers typically use the airport bus, app taxis or the train/shuttle combinations; travel can take 40–70 minutes depending on traffic, with fares varying from moderate coach prices to higher ride-hail costs. As the primary gateway, GRU is usually more full-service with extensive passenger facilities, lounges and duty-free shopping, but its size can mean longer queues and steps between terminals. Good for global connections; expect a bit more transit time and higher transfer fares.
