Airport contact
Small municipal regional airport about 8 km from downtown Sao Joao del-Rei; scheduled commercial service lapsed in 2014 amid runway/safety restrictions and the field has since seen only general aviation. Azul Conecta is scheduled to relaunch subsidized regional service with a new ATR-72 route from Belo Horizonte-Confins (CNF) starting 2 Aug 2026; as of Jul 2026 no scheduled flights are yet operating, so recent annual passenger totals are effectively nil.

Socicam Aeroportos
Municipal-contract airport operator/administrator of SNJR (confirmed via AISWEB/DECEA aerodrome record, which lists OPR SOCICAM Aeroportos, and via Wikipedia); provides apron/ramp coordination for the general-aviation, air-taxi and air-ambulance/patient-transfer traffic that uses the field. No scheduled airline has flown here since Azul's service ended (~2014/Jan 2015; predecessor Trip Linhas Aéreas before that), so there is no dedicated third-party ramp handler; Socicam's corporate materials describe "ground handling services... provided by professionals trained and highly qualified for the job" network-wide, but this is a company-level statement, not SNJR-specific — treat as unconfirmed at station level. · HJ (daylight/sunrise-to-sunset per AISWEB); outside those hours via tel. •••, ramal 2207, per the current AISWEB REM field (re-verified 2026-08-17 by direct fetch of aisweb.decea.mil.br). Note: an earlier draft cited (••• / (••• as AISWEB numbers — those do NOT appear on the current record and could not be corroborated elsewhere; treat as superseded/incorrect and use the 0800 number above.

On request
Universal Aviation (Universal Weather and Aviation)
Dedicated, live Universal Aviation location page for SNJR (universalaviation.aero/locations/brazil/sao-joao-del-rei-snjr/) verified directly: names local Operations Manager Marcia Taue (•••) and gives a station address on Rodovia BR-383, km 96, s/n - São Francisco (Colônia do Marçal), matching the airport's own access road. SNJR is listed among Universal's Brazil "Additional Supervisory Locations" (a genuine, distinct tier on their site — not a full on-site FBO and not generic boilerplate).
