Flight safety

Why does a plane go around? Is it dangerous?A “go around” is a safe procedure that poses no hazard to the

aircraft or its passengers. A pilot decides to go around when he or she identifies the conditions for landing are not fully supported and considers it necessary to make a new approach.

Why are the takeoff and landing of an airplane sometimes slow?

Flight operations are focused on air safety, therefore it is sometimes necessary to delay a takeoff or landing for a few minutes in order to ensure minimum separation

between aircraft. Priority for takeoff is given to the aircraft of the airline that first presented its flight plan, and landing priority is given to whichever aircraft arrives first at the destination. Exceptions to this are aircraft in emergency situations,

aircraft transporting patients in critical condition , etc.

Are there areas without radar coverage in Brazilian airspace?

The entire airspace of Brazil is covered by means of surveillance (radar), navigation aids and telecommunications. Therefore, all Brazilian regions are safe to fly, as they have adequate facilities in terms of providing security and fluidity levels in operating commercial flights.

Page 28: Passenger's Guide

28

Is it dangerous to fly when it’s raining?Even if the rain is intense, it is possible to fly because the

aircraft is designed to operate under those conditions. However, there may be some discomfort due to turbulence.

Why is there turbulence on flights?Turbulence is an atmospheric phenomenon that makes the

plane rock back and forth. It occurs more commonly when the plane is flying through a layer of clouds but it can also occur with clear skies. It can be caused by convective thermal currents, or when strong winds blow perpendicular to mountain ranges, variation in wind speed in a frontal zone or changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure. The planes can avoid areas of turbulence using weather radar, indicating the thickest clouds. The aircraft are designed with stand lightning. When lightning strikes an airplane, its fuselage passes without compromising flight safety. During the trip, remain seated with your seat belts fastened, especially when given the warning on the plane (light signals over seats and / or communicated by the crew). If you are in the toilet or the aisle, immediately return to your seat. The flight service is also stopped during turbulence.

Why is it possible to fly at night?Fly during the day or night, from the point of view of air

operations, makes no difference because of the technological resources available in aircraft and equipment of air navigation.

Return of luggage

Who is responsible for the return of my luggage?The flight company should return the luggage to the

passenger in the same condition in which it was shipped. The airport administrator shall maintain the baggage handling system and equipment in operation.

What should I do if there are problems with the return of my luggage?

Look for the airline representative possibly in the luggage claim area or within 15 days after the arrival date, report It in a document provided by the company or any other written communication. To make your claim, you must provide proof of your luggage check in. If the airline locates it, the baggage must be returned to your provided address. The luggage can remain lost for no more than 30 days (domestic flights) and 21 days (international flights). If not located and delivered within that time, the Company must in compensate the passenger.

What happens if luggage is damaged?Find the airline representatives to report it as soon as you see

the problem, possibly in the luggage claim area. A written notice may be registered in the company within seven days from the date of landing.

Page 30: Passenger's Guide

How about in cases of theft?Find the airline representatives and report the evidence with

a written document. The company is responsible for the luggage from check in to check out. In addition to filing a complaint with airline also file a formal complaint with the police.

Where do I go to voice my complaint?When buying a ticket, you establish with the airline a contract

of transportation. So if you feel hurt or that you had your rights violated, go first to the airline contracted to claim your rights as a consumer. You can also initiate a complaint against the airline in ANAC, after registering the complaint and the company having received the protocol number. ANAC examines the facts and if it finds a breach of civil aviation rules, administrative penalty may apply to the company.

can AnAc compensate me for the problems I had?No. ANAC is not part of the relationship established between

the passenger and the Airline Company; therefore you cannot seek compensation with ANAC. To claim compensation for moral damages and / or materials, see the administration of consumer protection or file with your Judiciary system. To require such compensation, it is important to retain proof of boarding card and proof of expenses eventually made (food, transport, accommodation and communication) or documents related to the professional activity that would be fulfilled at the destination.

Page 31: Passenger's Guide

Who is responsible for the bus that transports passengers from the plane to the terminal?

Transport of passengers between airplane and airport terminal is requested by the airline after the flight arrives, so that the airport administrator sends the necessary number of buses.

Who is responsible for Airport parking?Each airport operator can define how to manage their airports,

which can be administered either directly or indirectly. For more information, see the airport operator.

Is there any guidance on taxis and public transportation at the airports?

A common problem when traveling is diarrhea caused by ingestion of contaminated food or water. Always be alert to safety and the quality of what you eat or offer to children. Some species of birds and mammals can also transmit infectious diseases, especially in urban areas. Therefore, avoid close contact with live birds or slaughtered. If you are attacked by a domestic or wild mammal, immediately wash the area with soap and water and seek medical attention.
