São Paulo is served by two main airports with distinct roles. São Paulo–Guarulhos (GRU) is the country’s primary international gateway and a full-service hub for major carriers, typically handling most long-haul and intercontinental flights; it sits about 25–30 km northeast of downtown and can be reached by shuttle buses, taxis or the airport rail link in roughly 30–60 minutes depending on traffic, with fares ranging from modest bus tickets to higher taxi or ride-hailing fares. GRU is convenient for international transfers and full-service amenities but can feel busy and involve longer transfer times. Congonhas (CGH) is a smaller, centrally located airport mainly used for domestic and regional flights by low-cost and legacy Brazilian airlines; it’s roughly 8–12 km from the city center and reachable by taxi or bus in 20–40 minutes, usually at lower cost than longer trips to GRU. CGH is prized for quicker access to the city and shorter check-in times, though it handles fewer international options and can be constrained in peak hours.
