Patos de Minas - Pedro Pereira dos Santos Airport POJ / SNPD

Self-handled, Azul Conecta — the carrier's own ground/counter staff handle check-in, baggage and ramp turnaround for its scheduled Cessna Grand Caravan EX flights to/from Belo Horizonte-Confins (3x weekly as of late 2025/2026, per local press). ATR 72-600 service on the same route (Dec 2023-Oct 2025) was also Azul-operated. No third-party ground handler identified at this station.

Local aeroclube association is the airport's fuel coordination point: the airport's own operational record lists Jet A-1 and Avgas 100LL as available via prior coordination with ACAAP as the local handler. Separately, ACAAP holds a municipal concession (formalized Feb 2025, ~6.04-hectare area with a 35-year usage term per local press) to build 17 hangars plus a dedicated general-aviation fuel supply point ("ponto de abastecimento de combustível"), with a 24-month construction timeline from project approval. Fuel grade for the new dedicated point (AVGAS presumed for the GA piston fleet) and its construction-completion status are not independently confirmed; existing fuel access is by prior coordination only.

Passenger screening (X-ray inspection channel and metal detector) was installed in the 2019 terminal renovation to meet ANAC/airline requirements and is operated by the municipal airport administration; no separate private aviation-security contractor identified.

Municipal government (Secretaria responsible for the Aeroporto Pedro Pereira dos Santos) is the airport's administrator/operator, running the airfield, apron and terminal for Azul Conecta's scheduled service; confirmed via the airport's own operator/contact record and local press on terminal renovations. No separate FBO/handling-agent company identified at this small commuter field. Field operates HN O/R (prior notice/request) rather than fixed hours — no published fixed operating window.
