Purchasing tickets from Gol is a permanent source of headaches for non-residents. In case you didn't see it, this is Gol's section on <a href="http://www.voegol.com.br/int/Information/Paginas/HowtoPay.aspx"target=" blank" rel="nofollow">how to pay</a>. All the best!

Perhaps I should just try calling them! So I switched that and now it doesn’t want to accept my VISA card, it keeps giving me 2 different error messages that are you in Portugeuse.

But since I'm not Brazilian I dont have a CPF. Does anyone know how to get around this? Thanks Lisa Hi there,

Bear in mind that the closer the departure date the more expensive the fare is. You will have plenty of time to get from the bus station to the airport (it depends on the traffic, can take between 30 minutes and 1 hour and a half).

Thanks for your other response. I'm going to Iguazu on March 4th and the cheapest flight I found was R$369 from Sao Paulo on GOL. This seems very high to me, so I was wondering if you have any ideas on whether airlines tend to drop or raise prices closer to the travel date or if this price is very average? Last Tuesday, for one day, GOL was offering flight from Sao Paulo for R$189...should've booked. Oops. Also, if I'm leaving Paraty on the 23:30 bus and getting to Sao Paulo at 5:30, will I have enough time to catch the 12:50 flight from Guarulhos? I wasn't sure how far the bus station is from the airport? Thanks. Hi Tony! Thanks for your other response.
