São Paulo is served by three main airports, each with a distinct role. São Paulo–Guarulhos (GRU) is the international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carrier flights; it’s usually perceived as mid-to-high range in fares and sits about 25–30 km northeast of downtown (roughly 40–60 minutes by taxi or airport bus, depending on traffic; fares can range from moderate to higher). Transit options include taxis, shared shuttles, the airport bus network and a recently expanded rail link that shortens journey times. Pros: wide airline choice and amenities; cons: can be busy and affected by heavy road congestion. Congonhas (CGH) operates primarily as São Paulo’s domestic and short-haul city airport, favored by business travelers for its proximity — around 8 km from central areas (about 20–35 minutes by car or 30–45 minutes by bus). Major Brazilian carriers commonly use Congonhas on frequent business routes, and fares can be competitive for short hops. Ground transport is mostly taxis, ride-hailing and city buses with modest fares. Pros: convenient for downtown access and quick connections; cons: limited international service and potential peak-hour delays due to slot restrictions. Viracopos/Campinas (VCP), located about 90–100 km from São Paulo’s center, often complements the region as a secondary international and cargo-focused airport; it can be a budget-friendly alternative for some international or low-cost services, though transfer times are longer (roughly 1–1.5 hours by car or shuttle). Options include intercity buses and private transfers with variable pricing. Pros: lower congestion and sometimes cheaper fares; cons: greater distance from the city and fewer frequent public-transport options, making it less convenient for tight itineraries.

Fly nonstop from São Paulo to Frankfurt for the quickest, most convenient way to bridge Brazil and Germany — fewer hassles, no long layovers, and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting options can sometimes be cheaper, a direct flight saves hours and lets you arrive rested and ready to go, making it a smart choice for business or leisure travelers.

Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is Germany’s main international hub and a major transfer point for long-haul and European flights, while Frankfurt-Hahn (HHN), located farther away, typically serves low-cost carriers and charter services. FRA is a full-service hub for Lufthansa and Star Alliance partners, so fares can skew higher but offer extensive connectivity; HHN often has cheaper point-to-point options. FRA lies about 12–15 km from the city center with fast regional trains (15–20 minutes) and S-Bahn links (30–35 minutes) plus taxis and airport shuttles; expect public-transit fares in the low single euros to mid-range taxi prices. Pros: excellent connections, amenities, and lounges at FRA; cons: busy terminals and longer walking/transit times. HHN’s pros are lower fares and simplicity; cons include long transfer times to the city (about 1.5–2 hours by bus) and fewer services.
