WHY ADVERTISE

Why Advertise at Belo Horizonte Tancredo Neves International Airport?

Airport advertising at CNF puts your brand in front of one of Brazil's most valuable captive audiences. Brands that anchor a campaign at Confins often pair it with São Paulo/Guarulhos (GRU) for national reach. Here's why brands choose Confins:

High-value, hard-to-reach audience. Air travelers skew toward higher household income, business decision-makers, and frequent buyers, an audience that's difficult to reach efficiently through digital or broadcast channels.
Long, distraction-free dwell time. Passengers spend 1.5–3 hours inside the terminal before flights. Check-in lines, security queues, gate areas, and baggage claim create extended, repeated exposure to your message.
Gateway to Minas Gerais. CNF is the primary entry point to Belo Horizonte, Brazil's sixth-largest city, and the wider Minas Gerais market: a strong play for tourism, finance, mining, technology, and consumer brands targeting the region.
Premium brand context. A presence in a modern international terminal signals scale and credibility, lending your brand the prestige of the environment.
Always-on visibility. With the terminal operating 24 hours a day, your placement works around the clock across domestic and international passenger flows.
Measurable reach. Campaigns booked through AdQuick come with estimated impressions and audience data, so you can plan and report with confidence.

CREATIVE

Creative Specs, Lead Times & Approvals

Plan your CNF campaign timeline and creative production around the lead times, spec requirements, and approval steps that govern airport media.

Lead time

3–6 weeks

Per format

Each format has its own dimensions, file formats, resolution, and bleed requirements. AdQuick provides a complete spec sheet for every placement you book; digital screens generally accept static images and motion files sized to the screen's loop.

Airport review

Creative is reviewed by the airport and media operator. Avoid restricted categories and ensure messaging meets airport content guidelines. AdQuick flags issues before submission to keep your launch on schedule.

Production
