Services

Available On request / PPR Seasonal / ageing Unconfirmed / not listed
Ground handling Unconfirmed
Azul Linhas Aéreas Brasileiras S.A.
Azul is the only airline listed on the airport's own "todas-as-companhias-aereas" page and the sole scheduled carrier at SBTT (routes to Manaus and Tefe); no third-party ground handling company is identified in airport, ANAC-facing, or trip-support-directory sources (checked), so passenger/ramp handling is presumed self-handled, in-house, Azul at this single-carrier regional station.

Aircraft fuel Unconfirmed
Vibra Energia S.A. (BR Aviação)
A Tabatinga-specific QAV (Jet A-1) / AVGAS refuelling point at SBTT is listed as "Tabatinga / BR" in the FBO Hangares national aeronautical-services directory with local phone •••; the listing's own detail page tags it "BR / JET," i.e. a Petrobras Distribuidora/Vibra Energia "BR"-branded aviation-fuel post (the same branding pattern recurs at dozens of other remote Brazilian airports in the same directory), not a service of the airport concessionaire as previously assumed. No fuel entry appears separately in the DECEA/AISWEB ROTAER record for SBTT, and whether the post is operated directly by Vibra Energia or a licensed local distributor is not independently confirmed.

Cargo handling Unconfirmed
Azul Linhas Aéreas Brasileiras S.A.

Aviation security Unconfirmed
Concessionária dos Aeroportos da Amazônia S.A. (Vinci Airports)
Airport operator's own passenger guide (tabatinga-airport.com.br) lists "Inspeção de Segurança" (security screening) as a terminal service; concession holder Concessionária dos Aeroportos da Amazônia S.A. (Vinci Airports, confirmed via DECEA/AISWEB SBTT record and independently via Vinci Airports' own site noting SBTT joined the network in Feb 2022 under a 30-year concession) administers the field, but whether screening is performed in-house or by a subcontracted security firm is not documented.
