The official name of Brasília Airport is Brasília–President Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport. This long and impressive name pays homage to Juscelino Kubitschek, Brazil's former president, and highlights its international status. The airport is the primary gateway to Brazil's capital city, Brasília. Interestingly, the city itself is known for its unique urban planning, designed in the shape of either a plane or a wingspread bird, showcasing a striking and deliberate architectural layout that sets it apart from many other cities.
This comprehensive Brasília Airport guide is a valuable resource for travellers and visitors alike. It offers information about the airport's terminal facilities, public transportation, and nearby accommodation options.
From Brasília Central Station, head south on ERI and follow the signs for Exio L or the airport signs. The journey time from Brasília Central Station to Brasília Airport is about 15 minutes by car, depending on traffic.
