    title: Pick domestic vs international before security
    detail: >-
      Official map: public hall, then separate domestic and international
      departure areas. The satellite is reversible (intl gates 27–33 / domestic
      16–20). You cannot treat this as one airside walk.
    summary: >-
      Wrong stream can mean exiting and screening again — follow your boarding
      pass, not the crowd.

  - label: Food
    title: Pay R$300 or use Priority Pass at the 24h club
    detail: >-

      Federal clearance; PP lists 24h. Express official 06:00–22:00; PP lists
      06:00–00:00.
    summary: >-
      Use bsb.aero contato hours as primary; treat Priority Pass midnight/24h as
      a listing, not the operator clock.

# Brasília International Airport – Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek (BSB)
Brasília, Brazil · South America
A compact single-terminal capital airport that is easy to navigate and lounge-friendly outside the brutal weekday morning domestic bank, trading weak pure-airside food and no PreCheck-style lanes for solid Priority Pass options and straightforward ride-hail into the city.
## Airportist Score

**6.7 / 10**
- Comfort: 6.5
- Navigation: 7.5
- Food: 6.0
- Transport: 7.0

## At a glance

- Passengers: approx. 15 million
- Terminals: 1 main terminal (domestic + international wings)
- Typical security: 20 min

## Watch out for

- Weekday 05:30–09:00 domestic bank queues to SP/RJ
- Following the wrong domestic vs international security stream
- Generic airside food court quality and seating after 11:00
- Eixo Monumental traffic 07:00–09:30 and late afternoon
