Overnight stay at the airport

Can you spend the night at Belém airport (BEL)? Opening hours, rest areas and services for long layovers. See also the airport guide for general information.

Spending the Night at the Airport

The passenger terminal remains open 24 hours a day, allowing travelers to stay overnight during long layovers or prior to early-morning flights.

Rest Areas

Seating throughout the public concourse features fixed metal armrests that prevent lying down flat. The upper level is generally calmer and less crowded during late-night hours. Passengers with access to the secure departures area can take advantage of the 24-hour VIP lounges with quiet, climate-controlled environments.

24-Hour Dining

Coffee shops such as Amazonia Coffee (in the departures lounge) and Fran's Café (in the public concourse) provide hot beverages and snacks around the clock.

Showers

Shower facilities are available inside the W Premium Lounge and W Lounge in the departures area.

Security and Overnight Services

Security personnel actively patrol the terminal through the night. Multi-bank ATMs, the Banpará branch, the medical station, and terminal Wi-Fi operate 24 hours a day.

Services and opening hours can change. If you plan to sleep in the public area, have a plan B: some airports only let passengers with a flight stay overnight.

Tips for a long layover

  1. Check whether you can leave the airport: it depends on your nationality, the visa rules of Brazil and whether your bags are checked through.
  2. If you sleep airside, you will usually need a boarding pass for a flight that day. Ask your airline before you go through security.
  3. A lounge with day access can be cheaper than a hotel for a few hours: see VIP lounges at BEL.
  4. Keep your valuables with you, set an alarm and carry a light layer: terminals are often cold at night.
  5. Going to a hotel in town? See transportation from BEL (12 km to Belem), and check which services run at night.
