About This Route

São Paulo is South America's largest city, a sprawling capital of art museums, dynamic neighborhoods, and an outstanding restaurant scene. Its overnight nonstops make it a convenient gateway to Brazil.

São Paulo is the main gateway to Brazil, with nonstops from New York running about ten hours into Guarulhos from both JFK and Newark. LATAM, United, Delta and American all serve the route. Fares tend to be lower in March, April and September, and because Brazil's seasons are reversed, that window also brings pleasant autumn weather locally. Note that Brazil is reintroducing a visa requirement for US travelers, so verify the current rules before booking. The time difference is only one to two hours, so jet lag is minimal despite the distance. Comparing JFK and EWR fares can trim costs.

Pro tip: Book 3-6 weeks in advance for the best deals. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are typically the cheapest days to fly on this route. Avoid traveling during peak periods like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring break for lower fares.
