Airspace Overview

Recife International Airport supports extensive domestic and international passenger traffic while serving as a major connection point for northeastern Brazil. The airport's location within a densely populated metropolitan area results in frequent low-altitude aircraft movements during arrival and departure procedures. Drone operations conducted near these corridors may be subject to additional operational requirements.

Regulatory Framework

All drone activities must comply with regulations established by DECEA, ANAC, and ANATEL. These agencies oversee airspace access, operational safety standards, pilot responsibilities, and radiofrequency compliance requirements.

Flight Authorization

Depending on the planned operating area and altitude, authorization through the SARPAS platform may be required before conducting drone operations within controlled airspace sectors associated with airport activities.

Geofencing Controls

Commercial drone manufacturers may implement geofencing measures around the airport environment. Depending on the aircraft model, operators may encounter warnings, altitude limitations, or authorization requirements before flight.

Legal Penalties

Unauthorized operations that interfere with air navigation or violate applicable regulations may result in administrative sanctions, equipment seizure, fines, or legal proceedings under Brazilian law.
