SAO PAULO- From October 1, airlines that chose to fly using the airports of Guarulhos (Sao Paulo), Galeao (Rio de Janeiro) and Confins (Minas Gerais) on their domestic flights will pay 10% less airport taxes. The idea is to allow flights made today in Pampulha (Belo Horizonte), Santos Dumont (Rio) and Congonhas (Sao Paulo) to migrate to those airports. According to Brazil's airport authority, Infraero, new tariffs will be published in today's Diario Oficial (equivalent to the US Federal Register). "The measure may be extended to other airports during peak hours to improve maximum utilization of airports," said Infraero chairman Venancio Grossi. (Gazeta
