Pampulha - Carlos Drummond de Andrade Airport — Belo Horizonte, Brazil

Pampulha - Carlos Drummond de Andrade Airport, coded PLU, is located in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and named after the celebrated Brazilian poet. Situated near the Pampulha architectural complex designed by Oscar Niemeyer, a UNESCO World Heritage site, PLU primarily handles domestic flights, executive aviation, and regional connections within Minas Gerais state, complementing the larger Confins International Airport that serves most of Belo Horizonte's long-haul traffic. PLU's central, close-to-downtown location makes it convenient for business travelers and shuttle flights to cities like Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, distinguishing it as the more accessible but smaller of Belo Horizonte's two airports.
