Rio de Janeiro Galeão International Airport

Rio de Janeiro Galeão Airport is officially called Antonio Carlos Jobim International Airport. It's named after a famous Brazilian musician. The airport is investing tens of millions of dollars in improvements and expansions for the 2014 FIFA World Cup which takes place in Brazil and the Summer Olympics of 2016, for which Rio de Janeiro is the organizing city.

This airport is also famous for Iris Lettieri. For over thirty years she has been making the announcements. It's whispered that travelers were so enthralled by her sensual voice that they missed their flight... We can only hope she'll continue to do so for a long time, in 2011 she turned 70!
