Why fly to Londrina?
The honest answer is agriculture and business. Londrina sits in one of Brazil's most productive farming regions, and the airport reflects that economy — you'll share flights with agronomists, equipment reps, and soy traders as often as leisure travelers. LATAM, Azul, and Gol all serve the city, which means reasonable fare competition on the routes that matter. The workhorse connection is GRU (São Paulo Guarulhos), at 475 km the longest route on offer and your hub to basically everywhere else. Curitiba at 316 km is the shortest hop, useful if you're heading south or catching an onward international flight from CWB. It's a network built for utility, not aspiration, and sometimes that's exactly what you need.

Tips for travelers at LDB
The airport sits about 4 km from the city center, which is genuinely close — a taxi or rideshare runs 15 to 20 minutes in normal traffic, and the fare is predictable. Don't expect an extensive lounge product here. Azul and LATAM have their respective status programs, but the terminal facilities are basic, so eat before you arrive if you have a long wait. Paraná winters (June through August) bring cooler, drier weather and occasionally thicker morning fog, which can affect those short regional hops more than you'd expect. Build in buffer time if your itinerary depends on an early departure connecting onward.
