Flight

Guarulhos Airport, Sao Paulo (GRU)

This is the airport you need to land on. However, you may book whatever flight works best with your Schedule. Lake and I usually book United Airline's direct flight from O'Hare to São Paulo, as it is the most convenient one out of Chicago. Again, you may book whatever flight works best for you, just remember that we will only offer shuttle services - at our dime - on 08/11 from 6:00am-Noon and 08/12 from 6:00am-Noon

Travel Note

You need a visa for your travel!

You should apply for your anytime between 90 to 60 days before your travel date. Visa times usually take around 10 days to be processed, but we recommend you do this early to be safe. There is no interview required. You just upload some documents and information about yourself, pay an $80 fee and then receive the visa on your e-mail. You will print that Visa document emailed to you and bring it with you to Brazil, as authorities will ask for it once you go through customs.
