Next to T1 at AJU, this is the closest parking
This Accessible Parking sits immediately next to the T1 terminal at Aracaju – Santa Maria Airport, so you’re only a short walk from check-in and arrivals. If you’re dropping someone with reduced mobility or you don’t want to deal with long walks in the heat, this is the tightest radius you’ll get around the building.
Because it’s beside T1, this lot works well for both departures and arrivals at Santa Maria Airport, which currently operates all commercial flights from that single terminal. You park at ground level, step out, and the terminal entrance is right there, removing the need for shuttles or long curbside searches.
Signed Accessible Parking spaces are set aside in this area next to the terminal doors, so drivers using mobility aids or needing extra door clearance get marked bays rather than standard lines. That matters if you travel with wheelchairs, walkers, or need extra time to load passengers safely before heading into T1.
Because this lot is so close to the building, it fills faster during morning and evening bank times, when flights from carriers serving Aracaju bunch around the same hours. If you’re catching a peak-time departure from T1, build in a few extra minutes in case you need to circle once to find an Accessible bay near the entrance.
Practical tip: when you arrive, head straight toward the T1 terminal frontage and look for the Accessible Parking signage closest to the main doors, rather than turning off early into more distant general spaces.
