Viracopos International Airport (VCP/SBKP) is located in Campinas, São Paulo state, approximately 100 kilometers northwest of downtown São Paulo. It serves as one of Brazil's busiest cargo airports and an important low-cost carrier hub for domestic and international passenger traffic. The airport was significantly expanded and modernized under a concession agreement awarded to Aeroportos Brasil Viracopos in 2012, with major infrastructure investments aimed at increasing capacity for both passengers and freight. It has faced financial and operational challenges, including the concession holder entering into bankruptcy protection proceedings. Viracopos handles a substantial share of Brazil's air cargo volume, making it a critical logistics gateway for the country's industrial heartland in the interior of São Paulo state.
