Help with NYC-Brazil awards

We are planning to go to Brazil at the end of March/early April.
Preliminary plan is Rio, Salvador, Manaus (Amazon).

There's excellent availability on Avios to Rio.
TAM shows lots of domestic availability, but I have no TAM points.
So far, none of the flights have been released to partners, from what I can see.

What would be a good way to get around in Brazil?

use BA avios to redeem TAM flights within brazil or use air france or delta to redeem awards on GOL

or use united miles/*A to redeem on Azul

lots of options


also check local flights on brazilian sites...sometimes flights are dirt cheap

...except other than RIO-SSA on *A, I see no availability on anything else.
