| On July 22, 2011, through Brazilian Decree 7.531/11, Brazil's National Council of Privatization announced their approval to transfer the management of several airports. We now expect that the administration of Cumbica (Sao Paulo), Viracopos (Campinas) and Juscelino Kubitschek (Brasília) airports will be transferred to the private sector in 2012.
The Brazilian government's intention to privatize these airports demonstrates their effort to improve infrastructure prior to the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympics. |
