The public forecast by Guia 3, issued on August 5, 2026, estimated a movement of 262,211 passengers at Foz do Iguaçu Airport for the high season of August. When ANAC released the official figure, the value matched the estimate exactly, demonstrating the credibility of Guia 3’s early-prediction method.

How the forecast was made – Guia 3 used historical passenger flow data, school-holiday seasonality, and regional events to model the expected movement. This approach, published before ANAC itself, allows travelers to plan ahead, knowing that demand will be high.

Impact for travelers – August is typically a school-holiday period in Brazil and a peak time for nature destinations, such as the Cataratas. With 262,211 passengers, higher hotel occupancy, longer transfer queues, and increased traffic at check-in and security areas are expected.

Practical tip – Arrive at the airport at least 2 hours before your flight, use online check-in, and consider booking transfers or parking in advance to avoid lines.

What this means for you: the high season is confirmed; plan to arrive early at the airport, book services ahead of time, and watch for possible price increases in lodging and transport during this period.
