Most important tips

Know before you go

A compact traveler cheat sheet for timing, terminals, food, and disruption checks.

Hours

The passenger day ends at 23:45

Motiva’s S26 capacity declaration sets the airport at 05:00–23:45 local, matching the AIS service window of 0800–0245 UTC.

Check-in desks are supposed to open 2 hours before a domestic departure and 3 hours before an international one. Minimum connection times in that declaration are marked N/A.

Terminal

One terminal, domestic airlines only on the route list

Azul, GOL, and LATAM are the airlines on Motiva’s partner page. The destinations page lists São Paulo, Campinas, Rio de Janeiro, and Porto Alegre.

The building has an international processing layout, but that page does not list a scheduled international passenger city.

Runway

A 1,800 m runway beside the river

AIS limits regular use to reference code 4C or lower, bans category C aircraft from the visual circuit, and requires pushback above 20 tonnes.

Unlit cranes and ship traffic on the Itajaí-Açu sit about 1,000 m from threshold 08. Bare-faced ibis and southern lapwing are reported along the runway.

Food

Cafés are named; water prices are not

The airport page lists Casa do Pão de Queijo, Rei do Mate, Havanna, 3 Corações, Dog Show, Doog, Eisenbahn, and Executive Class Restaurant.

Free Wi-Fi is stated for the whole airport. No network name and no bottle price are published.

Live conditions

Right now at NVT

Security waits and operational status from official feeds, where the airport publishes them.

Terminal navigation guide

Terminal-change and gate-area notes pulled from the markdown guide.

From Terminals & Navigation

There is one passenger terminal. Declared hourly capacity is 640 domestic departures and 770 domestic arrivals, and 240 international in each direction.
Check-in is 22 conventional desks plus 7 kiosks. Security modules are listed as 3 domestic and 1 international, with no connection module. The Federal Police runs emigration and immigration; there are no e-gates in the declaration.
Baggage reclaim is 2 domestic belts and 1 international belt. Target delivery from chock is 5–20 minutes domestic and 10–40 minutes international.
AIS reference point is 26°52′43″S 048°39′03″W. Runway 08/26 is 1,800 by 45 metres, TORA, TODA, ASDA, and LDA all 1,800 metres, RESA 90 by 90 metres at both ends. Both ends are VFR and non-precision IFR, day and night.
The 1 October 2026 AIS card prints PCR 520/F/B/X/T. The September 2025 capacity declaration still prints PCN 52/F/B/X/T. Treat them as two published figures, not one number.
Regular use is reference code 4C or lower. Category C aeroplanes are forbidden in the visual circuit, which is northwest only. In IMC, code 3 and 4 landing or takeoff cannot run at the same time as taxiway or pushback movements. Backtrack above 40 tonnes is only at the thresholds. Pushback is compulsory above 20 tonnes.
RFFS is civil category 7. The disabled-aircraft plan on the AIS card covers a Learjet 24 (6,300 kg). Tower is NAV Brasil on 118.200, emergency 121.500, ATIS 127.625, during the service window.
Birds (bare-faced ibis and southern lapwing) concentrate along 08/26 and near threshold 08. Unlit cranes at 370 ft sit 1,640 m and 2,000 m from threshold 08, and ships use the Itajaí-Açu about 1,000 m from that threshold. Kites are noted especially in January, February, July, and December.

Editorial guide tricks

The markdown guide's highest-signal tactics before the data-backed tips below.

From Best Airport Tricks & Hacks

Plan around 05:00–23:45 local. The S26 capacity declaration (23 September 2025, season 29 March–31 October 2026) and the AIS card use that same day, the AIS version written as 0800–0245 UTC.
Domestic check-in desks are scheduled to open 2 hours before departure, international desks 3 hours before. The same declaration leaves every minimum connection time as N/A, so do not assume a legal connection.
Azul, GOL, and LATAM are the partners on the airport site. The destinations page currently names four domestic cities in three states: São Paulo, Campinas, Rio de Janeiro, and Porto Alegre.
The terminal is built for international processing (240 passengers an hour each way, four emigration and four immigration desks, one international security module, one international belt), but that destinations page does not list an international passenger city.
For an international flight that is neither a regular service nor a charter, AIS requires a GENDEC at apoc.nvt@motiva.com.br at least 48 hours ahead. Schedule changes need 4 hours. Federal officers work on demand.
Weeknight works in the S26 declaration run 00:00–04:30, Monday to Friday, from 8 June through 30 October 2026. That window sits outside the published passenger day.

01

NavigationTraveler Tips & Hacks

Do not plan a departure after 23:45

The published passenger day is 05:00–23:45 local.

AIS writes it as 0800–0245 UTC. Night works through 30 October 2026 are 00:00–04:30 on weekdays, outside that day.

02

LoungeTraveler Tips & Hacks

Match the lounge to the zone

The Lounge is the domestic room. W Lounge is the international room near Gate 1.

W Lounge limits a visit to 3 hours and may refuse entry when it is full. Neither listing publishes a shower or a day-pass price.

Pro

The Lounge includes food and a play area.

Watch-out

W Lounge can turn cardholders away.

03

TransportTraveler Tips & Hacks

Budget a taxi or a rideshare

Those are the modes the airport actually lists, about 4 km from central Navegantes.

Parking has 346 spaces and is open all night, but the fare is only available from (47) 9155-2238.

Water & Hydration

From Water & Hydration

Bottled drinks are sold at the named cafés, including Casa do Pão de Queijo, Rei do Mate, Havanna, 3 Corações, and Grancoffee.
No free refill map and no bottle price are published, so this guide does not store a water option.
