You probably will arrive in Brazil at the Sao Paulo International Airport of Guarulhos (IATA GRU). The Guarulhos Airport has both international and national flights. However, the main gate for national flights is Sao Paulo International Airport of Congonhas (IATA CGH). There is a special transfer between those two airports. The flight from Sao Paulo to Florianopolis is about 50 minutes. From Rio de Janeiro the flight time is about 1,5 hours, depending on the connections.
Brazil has many airlines connecting the cities and all of them are trustable and reliable. TAM is the major one and offers connections through CGH for everywhere. GOL is the low-fare airline company covering all cities in Brazil.
