Onward Int'l Connections For Avianca Flights into Sao Paulo (GRU)
I am hoping to use United miles to acquire a single business class award reservation (one record locator) for travel from LIM to JNB (via GRU) for January or February 2018. The specific through itinerary that the UA website is showing me is TA 917 (TA stands for TransAmerican which is part of Avianca) connecting with SA 223. The scheduled connection time is 12 hours and 40 minutes during daylight hours.
Is there any safe way to make the transit connection at GRU which is described above (with baggage, either checked and/or carry-on) without having a Brazilian visa?
If you think you might be able to help me with this question, please refer to the much longer and more detailed posting here:
