Private flights to Porto Alegre

Porto Alegre is the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, the southernmost state in Brazil and the one with the greatest European influence in the country, with a German and Italian heritage that is expressed in its winegrowing, gastronomy and architecture. As a private aviation hub in southern Brazil, it is both a business destination and a gateway to the Serra Gaúcha and the Pampas countryside.

Featured experiences

Cave Geisse — World-class Traditional Method Sparkling Wines, absolute reference in Bento Gonçalves. Gramado Natal Festival The most famous in Brazil (November-January, 3 million visitors).

Gastronomy

The gaúcho churrasco is the original: served country style with chimarrão. In winter, the pinhão — monkey puzzle tree pine nut — is a local ritual. Italian pasta with wine from Serra's own production defines the colony's table.

Why fly privately

Approximately 1,700 km from Buenos Aires, about 2h20 flight time. Salgado Filho Airport (POA) is 8 km from the center. The Porto Alegre + Serra Gaúcha combination requires a direct flight plus car transfer: the wine route is 150 km from the city, and only private aviation allows you to do this circuit in a single efficient day.

Best time to visit

October to March: summer, harvest in January-February, warmer temperatures. June to September: winter, Gramado Natal season, fog and cold in the Campos do Sul, more cinematic atmosphere in the European villages of the Serra.
