GOL has opened ticket sales for its Rio de Janeiro Galeão (GIG) to New York JFK nonstop service for the 2027 season, with operations scheduled to begin on March 28, 2027. The route is set to operate three times a week, with departures from Rio on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday at 9:55 p.m. and return flights from New York on Monday, Thursday and Saturday at 11:00 p.m.
The advance sale reflects GOL’s 330-day booking window and comes as the carrier expands its intercontinental network following the addition of Airbus A330 aircraft to its fleet. The Rio–New York route will begin commercial service on July 8, 2026, also with three weekly frequencies, positioning Galeão as GOL’s newest international hub.
Tickets for travel from March 2027 are available through GOL’s website, mobile app, Smiles loyalty program, airport sales points, travel agencies and American Airlines channels. GOL has also announced a Rio de Janeiro–Salta route starting December 17, reinforcing the airline’s wider international push from Rio.
