Angra dos Reis

Typical arrival options are coastal airport or airfield, marina and port helipad, hotel or estate pad, yacht deck. Which one you actually use is confirmed per booking, because pad licences, noise windows and owner permissions change. Standard GA arrival with handling, then a short road leg to the waterfront. The reliable default in poor weather.

No. The airport or airfield arrival works for every booking and is the fallback whenever a private site is unavailable or weather closes it. A licensed private pad, an approved one-off landing site or a yacht helideck are added on top when the operator can obtain the permissions in time.

The coastal airport or regional airfield is the dependable arrival point in any weather, with a short road leg to the waterfront. Marina and port pads are available by prior arrangement, and many coastal municipalities restrict evening movements, so late arrivals may be routed to the airfield instead.

Both, for different reasons. On the business side: Yacht guest and crew transfers between marina, airport and vessel at anchor; Property and development inspections along the coastline; Executive movements during regatta, festival and conference weeks when roads gridlock. On the private and leisure side: Airport-to-villa transfers that skip the coastal road in high season; Short hops between neighbouring resort towns in 10–20 minutes; Yacht rendezvous — meet the boat wherever it is that evening.

The time depends on where you depart from; the flight-time calculator gives a planning estimate for your exact route. Nearby, Ilha Grande is roughly 10 minutes away, Paraty is roughly 15 minutes away, Ubatuba is roughly 25 minutes away at normal block speed. Actual times depend on aircraft type, routing, wind and any airspace restriction on the day.

24–48 hours, extended during regatta, festival and high-season weeks when handling and pads fill. Requests outside those windows are still worth sending — availability depends on where aircraft are already positioned.

The operator decides on the day against actual conditions and the aircraft’s approval level. In practice the flight either shifts to an alternative site with a road leg for the final stretch, moves to a later slot, or is cancelled. Build the fallback into your schedule rather than into the day itself.

Capacity is set by the aircraft, not the destination: light singles typically carry around 100–120 kg of baggage across all passengers, light twins roughly 180–200 kg, and soft bags load far better than hard cases. Declare passenger weights and bag count at request stage so the operator quotes an aircraft that can actually carry the load.

No. SkyMatch is an independent broker and concierge, not an aircraft operator. A licensed third-party operator flies the trip and confirms the aircraft, availability, price, route and landing site; the flight contract is with that operator.
