In Guarulhos, the landing fee for the A380 follows the ANAC table by maximum takeoff weight; video compares Campinas and cites Recife as even more expensive for international flights
The question that opens the video is straightforward: how much does Emirates need to pay every day to land the A380 in Guarulhos? The answer appears when the narrator explains the criteria adopted in Brazil by ANAC and places the airline’s aircraft in the highest charging category.
The central point is simple and at the same time heavy on the wallet: the fee in Guarulhos is calculated by maximum takeoff weight and changes according to the category, in addition to being more expensive for international flights. In the case of the A380, the amount reported for landing already considers landing and takeoff together.
How ANAC calculates the landing fee
Before discussing the A380 in Guarulhos, the video explains the rule: ANAC uses maximum takeoff weight as a criterion. This weight is divided into ranges, and each range has a value per landing.

Another important detail highlighted in the video is that the fee includes landing and takeoff. In other words, it is not a separate charge for landing and another for takeoff; it is a single amount for the complete cycle.
The ranges in Guarulhos and cited examples
To show how it works in practice in Guarulhos, the video lists ranges and provides examples of aircraft that fall into each one.
In the range of 6 to 12 tons, an Embraer Brasília (EMB 120) would pay R$ 551.37 for domestic flights and R$ 1,156.40 for international flights.
In the range of 12 to 24 tons, the ATR 72 600 is mentioned as an example. The cited fee is R$ 1,252 for domestic flights and R$ 2,609.84 for international flights.
In the range of 24 to 48 tons, jets like E170 and E175 come in. The reported amount is R$ 3,213.78 for domestic flights and R$ 5,859.73 for international flights.
In the range of 48 to 100 tons, common aircraft in commercial aviation, such as A320, A321, 737 800, and 737 Max 8, are included. In Guarulhos, the video points out R$ 3,804.31 for domestic flights and R$ 7,958.52 for international flights.
How much does the Emirates A380 pay in Guarulhos
The range of interest for the A380 is 300 tons and above, where the video also includes models like 747, 777 300, and the A380 itself. And this is where the most striking amount comes in.
In Guarulhos, for international flights, the Emirates A380 would pay R$ 34,850.71 per landing. The video emphasizes that this is the highest amount currently charged in Guarulhos within the presented table.
And in Campinas, does it change a lot?
After closing the account for Guarulhos, the video compares it with Campinas, where large freighters, including 747 and 777 freighters, land. The logic remains the same: ranges by maximum weight and different values for domestic and international flights.
In the range of 300 tons and above, Campinas would charge R$ 15,550.84 for domestic flights and R$ 33,080.89 for international flights. In other words, in the comparison shown, Campinas is below Guarulhos in the international value for the top of the table.
Recife would be even more expensive for international flights
The video expands the comparison to other airports and states that, among the main ones analyzed, the most expensive would be Recife. In the cited scenario, if an Emirates A380 landed in Recife for an international flight, the fee would be R$ 49,895 per landing.
It is this contrast that supports the conclusion presented: there is a strong discrepancy in the amounts charged for a landing, especially when comparing domestic and international flights and when looking at different airports.
What the video makes clear about the difference between flights
Even without delving into the details of spreadsheets, the content highlights two keys to understanding the calculation: maximum takeoff weight defines the range, and the type of operation changes the value, with international flights increasing significantly.
In the end, the message is that Guarulhos weighs on the cost when the aircraft is at the top of the table, and that, depending on the airport, the same type of operation can become even more expensive.
Do you think this fee in Guarulhos is fair for an international A380, or is it too high for the reality of airports in Brazil?
