Sao Paulo Congonhas Airport, also known as Deputado Freitas Nobre Airport, is one of the four commercial airports serving São Paulo, Brazil. The airport gets its name from the neighborhood where it is situated, called Vila Congonhas, which belongs to the descendants of the Viscount of Congonhas do Campo, the first president of the Province of São Paulo after Brazil’s independence in 1822. However, since June 19, 2017, it has officially been named after Deputy Freitas Nobre, although the name Congonhas is still predominantly used. The airport is owned by the City of São Paulo.
Sao Paulo Congonhas Airport operates with slot restrictions, allowing a maximum of 30 operations per hour, making it one of the five airports in Brazil with such limitations. In 2019, it ranked as the second busiest airport in Brazil in terms of passenger traffic, following São Paulo–Guarulhos.
The central hall of the passenger terminal at Sao Paulo Congonhas Airport is considered a remarkable example of modern architecture in São Paulo. However, since 2003, efforts have been made to modernize and expand the terminal while preserving the appearance of the older, historic section. Currently, the main terminal spans an area of 51,535 square meters (554,718 square feet).
In 2008, Congonhas Airport lost its international status. On August 31, 2009, Infraero announced an investment plan to upgrade Sao Paulo Congonhas Airport, with a focus on preparations for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, which took place in Brazil, with São Paulo being one of the host cities. The investment included the construction of a new control tower, renovation of the apron, completion of the renovation of the south portion of the passenger terminal, and refurbishment of the north portion of the passenger terminal.
Previously operated by Infraero, on August 18, 2022, the consortium AENA won a 30-year concession to operate the airport.
