Florianópolis Hercílio Luz International Airport, managed by Floripa Airport, won the trophy in two categories: "Airport that evolved the most in 2019" and "Airport with the most passenger services".

Among the airports that process up to 5 million passengers a year, Florianópolis also won, along with Maceió, in the “more passenger services” category.

In his speech, Minister Tarcísio de Freitas highlighted Florianópolis airport:

“Florianópolis airport, with a short opening time, has already received awards. In other words, the citizen has already noticed the improvement. For the coming years, Florianópolis is a strong competitor for all categories. It’s just a provocation, in this healthy competitive environment,” he commented.

The Passenger Satisfaction Survey, which served as the basis for the award, surveyed 94.549 users in 2019. The set of 20 airports evaluated reached an average overall satisfaction of 4,43 in 2019, compared to 4,35 in 2018, an increase of 1,8% of the grade.
