 Viracopos International Airport - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The airport is located 90 km (58 miles) from São Paulo and 14 km (8 miles) from Campinas, close by the huge Bandeirantes and Anhangüera highway complex which connects the capital city to the interior.
Before the completion of Guarulhos International Airport in 1985, Viracopos was the international gateway to São Paulo.
Due to the airfield's distance from the city, international flights directly to Sao Paulo were limited; most passengers simply opted to fly to Rio de Janeiro and connect to the smaller Congonhas Airport, which was much closer to the city.
