How much does a private jet from São Paulo cost?

What is aircraft positioning from São Paulo and what does it cost?
Positioning is the ferry of an aircraft to you when the right type isn't on site: usually from nearby state airfields. It is billed at the chosen class's hourly rate and added to the flight cost; in high season positioning is shorter as aircraft are already nearby. Send us a request — we'll pick the aircraft, price it with positioning and arrange the flight for your task.
When is high season in São Paulo and how does it affect price?
Demand is high year-round, peaking in the business seasons, the Brazilian Grand Prix in November and before the holidays. At peak, rates are higher and slots and parking go early; off-season is cheaper. Send us a request — we'll pick the aircraft, price it with positioning and arrange the flight for your task.
