New premium terminal in São Paulo for First Class travelers

(1 July 2026)

With a new partnership, the Lufthansa Group is setting new benchmarks in the premium segment in São Paulo: Lufthansa and SWISS First Class guests now benefit from exclusive access to the newly opened BTG Pactual Terminal at São Paulo/Guarulhos Airport (GRU) — the first private VIP terminal of its kind in Latin America.

The concept goes far beyond a traditional lounge. Operating entirely independently from the regular airport infrastructure, the terminal enables a fully seamless and discreet travel experience, without any contact with public areas.

The offer includes:

  • private access to the terminal
  • personal concierge service for check-in
  • dedicated baggage handling
  • private security and passport controls
  • individual transfer directly to the aircraft

The experience is complemented by a premium hospitality concept featuring fine dining and exclusive services. Additional options such as helicopter transfers, as well as bookable meeting rooms and private lounges, allow for further customization.

With this offer, the Lufthansa Group reinforces its ambition to shape First Class travel as a fully integrated experience—extending well beyond the flight itself.
