Default Brazil Flights Suspended


A protest by air traffic controllers forced the suspension of flights from Brazilian airports Friday, stranding thousands of travelers across the country, according to union officials and government media.

All 67 commercial airports in Latin America's largest country were closed for takeoffs, but planes in flight were allowed to land normally, the government news service Agencia Brasil said.

With the possible exception of Russia, I would think that Brazil relies more on air for intra-country travel than any other country.
