Bacacheri Airport — Curitiba, Brazil

Bacacheri Airport, identified by the code BFH, serves Curitiba, the capital of Brazil's Paraná state, from a location within the city itself rather than the outskirts. Perched 3,057 feet up on Curitiba's elevated plateau in southern Brazil, the field runs a single runway devoted to general aviation, executive jets, and flight training rather than large commercial jets. Curitiba's main international gateway is Afonso Pena Airport (CWB), located outside the city in São José dos Pinhais, which handles the scheduled airline traffic that once used Bacacheri before operations shifted there. BFH today functions as a secondary field for the metropolitan area, valued for its closer, more convenient location relative to downtown Curitiba compared to the newer international terminal.
