Brazil has instituted special rules for aviators flying to Rio de Janeiro during the Olympic Games, to be held from Aug. 5 to 21. Cynthia Oliveira, director of operations at Lider Aviation, discusses the hot topics that will affect business aircraft operators during the games, including visa requirements, airport slot systems, hours of operation and what you should know about the Zika virus. Learn more about preparing to fly to Rio in this week’s NBAA Flight Plan, sponsored by Jet Quest.
The NBAA Flight Plan podcast, which ran from 2009 to 2025, provided an overview of important developments affecting NBAA members, and the association’s work to advocate for their interest. The archive of past episodes will remain available for your enjoyment. Please note that no new episodes will be released.
