The north-east's international hub, minutes from Boa Viagem beach. Met at the gate, walked to your car.
Recife/Guararapes–Gilberto Freyre International Airport (REC) is the busiest airport in Brazil's north-east, serving Recife, Olinda and the beaches of Pernambuco — including the transfer point for Porto de Galinhas — with domestic flights nationwide and international services to Europe, North America and South America. The single terminal is close to the city and works in Portuguese. Our Recife meet & assist gives you a greeter who speaks English and Portuguese from the arrival gate to the kerb — help with hand luggage, guidance through immigration and customs on an international flight, help at the baggage belt and a handover to your driver — and from the kerb through check-in, security and passport control to your gate on departure. Priced per passenger, per direction, in US dollars, all-inclusive, and booked online at least 48 hours ahead.

Good to know at REC
A greeter who speaks English and Portuguese meets you at the arrival gate, helps with your hand luggage, guides you through immigration, customs and quarantine with language support, helps at the baggage belt and hands you over to your driver at the kerb. On departure you are met at the kerb, helped with your bags and check-in, guided through security and passport control and escorted to the lounge or your gate.
We're honest about this: no. At REC your greeter uses the fastest lanes available on the day, but official fast-track access is not guaranteed at Brazilian airports other than Rio Galeão (GIG), and every passenger still clears security, immigration and customs in person. What the service saves is the queue you would otherwise stand in alone, in Portuguese.
