 | Natal Flights and Airline Tips | 1 - 10 of 10 |  |
By December 2000 there was only a few charter-flights to Natal's airport from outside Brazil (as far as I could see). It's also round-trip flights to and from Fortaleza, Salvador, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and probably several other Brazilian cities.
By now I guess it's more international flights to Natal.
Taxi are cheap in Brazil (at least for a Norwegian) so that is always an option. There are also a lot of buses. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Getting around Natal by bus is easy.
The main spots of the city (Ponta Negra, Praia do Meio, downtown, Shopping Centers) are connected by large avenues, and many buses shuttle along them.
A ticket today (May 2004) is at R$ 1,30, or about US$ 0,40. Besides buses, natalenses use also "bestas", small - but legalized - vans which follow the same paths, with the same price.
Drivers and conductors don´t speak English, but are usually very willing to help.
To go outside the city (Jenipabu, Buzios, etc), even though there are some intercity lines, the best deal is to pay for tours; competition is tough, prices are fair (shop around). Even better is to arrange for the travel agent to pick you up at the hotels. Leave a Comment

 TAXI! by madvex
Before you get in the taxi, ask the driver how much to goto ___________? Don't like the price? Then get a different taxi, or let the driver know what you're willing to pay - barder.
You will find that the meter rate for taxis is one of the mopst expensive things in Natal. Especially if you are going someplace outside of Ponta Negra.
The solution?? Regardless of what you do, DO NOT let them use the taxi meter to determine your fee. Negotiate FIRST. Then, If they turn it on, tell them it's not necessary -you will pay [X] amount to goto [Y] location. Still have problems? Get out of the taxi and get another taxi driver who's willing.
You won't have any trouble - believe me.
There's a saying about bartering in Brazil that goes "No chora, no Mama" - which translates basically into "The baby that doesn't cry, does not get fed". - Bartering is welcomed and expected so, do it! Leave a Comment Theme: Other

You can take the bus or a van at anytime to go to Natal or around there... it's really cheap, less than 50 cents... the buggys are best to know places by the beaches and it's more expensive...the bus and vans goes by the road. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Don't give them money, they should be in school, but sambaing is easy-money to them. Remember that average salary f.e. in restaurant workers is some 300-400 reals per month. Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/Boat
