GIG in Rio de Janerio........on landing only.........check out the pic........you always land from L-R on the north runway, taxi all the way back, and instead of turning left at your first opportunity into the apron by T1, you go all the way around, almost to the end of the military runway and then enter the apron by T2.........

After a 9-12 hour flight it is most annoying. But it's Brasil..........and a minor sacrifice in regards to what awaits once you clear customs.
