Pre- and Post-AGA Tours
The Interline Club Portugal would like to remind interliners to respect the deadline to register for the pre- and post-AGA tours. With the current exchange rate of the Euro, the package prices are now very attractive especially for our North American interliners.
Internet Access
Interliners are reminded that internet access will be complimentary in the AGA hotel.
Extra Nights
Special rates of EUR 80.00 (single) and EUR 90.00 (double/twin) have been obtained with the hotel for interliners wishing to arrive early or leave after the AGA.
Security
Even though Recife is considered a safe location, we have the guarantee of security services of the Brazilian Police especially at the Boa Viagem beach and the area surrounding the hotel.
Arrival
To ensure smooth handling for those interliners entering Brazil at the Recife airport, customs authorities have been informed that special items may be imported for the Regional Evenings. Please note, however, that no meat or vegetables will be allowed.
