I do this flights quite often and I still don't see the point of flying to CGH.
I guess you missed my point.

What I am trying to say is that I will fly to and from Brazil through GRU.

I will then fly to Rio for work using CGH and SDM since both are much more convenient, and I will probably spend 1 night or 2 in Sao Paulo after coming back from Rio before I will fly home from GRU. CGH is 15 minutes from my hotel and SDM is 10 minutes from my office.

However, if my travel requires that I fly home directly from GIG through GRU, then I will have to endure the 30 minutes rescreening in GRU.
