The Foz International Bus Terminal moved 77,976 travelers in October 2026, according to the flow panel from the Municipal Tourism Secretariat of Foz (SMTU), captured by Guia 3. The figure represents the sum of boardings and alightings at the terminal.

The comparison (bar chart) indicates that the flow was 12% below the level recorded in October 2025, when 88,604 travelers passed through the terminal. This decline may reflect seasonal variations, weather conditions, or changes in the supply of intermunicipal and international buses.

For those traveling by bus between Foz do Iguaçu, Puerto Iguazú and Ciudad del Este, passenger volume affects seat availability, departure times, and service frequency. In periods of lower traffic, as observed, it may be easier to secure seats and find promotional fares.

What this means for you:

  • If you plan to take a bus from the terminal in October, there is a good chance of finding seats in advance and lower prices.
  • Check the updated schedule and bus occupancy on the Foz-Puerto Iguazú and Foz-Ciudad del Este routes before purchasing, as demand is reduced.
  • Consult the terminal website or transport apps to confirm times and availability on the day of travel.
