The Varig Brazil Air Pass is priced from US$479 for a minimum of four domestic flight coupons, graduating to a maximum of nine coupons, for US$1079. Taxes and surcharges are additional and vary according to the destinations visited.

 The Mercosur Air Pass, for travel within and between Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay and Chile - excluding Easter Island - offers travel to a minimum of two countries, with a maximum of three stopovers per country.

This Air Pass, in conjunction with interline airline partner Pluna, is priced from US$295 – US$1195, plus taxes and surcharges, which again vary according to the routes flown.

Both Air Passes are available only to residents of a country other than Brazil, and exclude Brazilian nationals resident in other countries.
