Rio de Janeiro to Manaus with a stop on the way

It depends on the day's fares: the stop only pays off when both legs (plus the hotel) cost about the same as, or less than, the direct flight. Geographically, Goiânia (GYN) is about 930 km from Rio de Janeiro and 1,920 km from Manaus, a 0% detour over the straight line. Central-West capital, a base for Pirenópolis and the Goiás cerrado. The live prices on this page compare both options when recent data is available.

By our criteria (at most 60% extra distance, moving the traveller closer to the destination and at least 150 km from both ends), the stops with the least detour are Goiânia (GYN, +0%), Brasília (BSB, +1%), Belo Horizonte (CNF, +2%), Campinas (VCP, +6%), and Cuiabá (CGB, +7%).

Yes. With two separate tickets, checked baggage is not transferred between them: you collect your bags at the stop and check them in again for the next flight. Check the baggage allowance on each ticket.

If the first flight is delayed or cancelled, the airline on the second ticket has no obligation to rebook you. That is why every stopover option is marked "separate tickets", and we recommend staying overnight at the stop or leaving a generous gap between flights.

We recommend at least 3 hours between the first flight landing and the second one departing, because you have to collect your bags and check in again. Options with less time, or unknown times, are flagged.

Prices come from recent searches recorded by Aviasales (Travelpayouts), and each one shows when and where it was observed. Prices seen more than 48 hours ago are flagged, and the page is only indexed when there is data from the last 48 hours. Always confirm the fare on the booking site before you buy.

Only when we have a hotel quote near the stop’s airport. Without one, the option is labelled "hotel not included" and the total covers the flights only.

About 2,850 km in a straight line between GIG and MAO airports. Gateway to the Amazon; the Teatro Amazonas and the Meeting of the Waters are nearby.
