The air taxi market in Belo Horizonte is the third largest in Brazil. As a result of this, the capital of Minas Gerais boasts an incredible supply of jets and helicopters, in addition to having airports and helipads that suit the most diverse types of travel, from short trips to international routes.
Having the capital of Minas Gerais as a base is a privilege in terms of logistics, since the city is just a few hours flight from important centers in the Northeast, Southeast and Midwest. The air taxi sector in Belo Horizonte focuses on the two main airports in the metropolitan area.

Air Taxi in Belo Horizonte: Airports and Helipads
Located close to the center of BH, Pampulha Airport (SBBH) is the city’s main air taxi hub. With no commercial flight operations since September 2019 and the confirmation that the State of Minas Gerais will manage it from next year, the airport already has hangars and operations centers for reputable Brazilian air taxi companies in its structure.
The other option in the city is Confins International Airport (SBCF). The great advantage of the equipment is precisely the possibility of connecting passengers to routes beyond Brazilian borders. In 2019, between landings and takeoffs, Confins operated 2,600 international flights, connecting Belo Horizonte to destinations such as Buenos Aires (Argentina), Panama City (Panama), Lisbon (Portugal) and Orlando (United States).
Helipads
If the trip is a short distance and requires even more agility in the operation, the capital of Minas Gerais is well served by helipads spread across both central areas and the airport region. In addition to Pampulha and Confins, another airport that operates helicopter landings is Carlos Prates (SBPR), which is currently reserved for instructional flights and is less than 10 kilometers from the center of Belo Horizonte.
When exploring the Flapper application, the user looking for a helicopter transfer can also choose the Helicentro helipads as a starting point/destination Zona Sul (SIVB), HeliBH (SJLY), Viganó – Raja (SNCR), Eco Aviação (SWAH), Cemig (SSWC), FIAT Betim (SWUT), in addition to the recently opened helipad on top of the Concordia Corporate (SDNZ), building tallest in Belo Horizonte.
