Line 1.87 – São Domingos

Bus

Bus 30-40 min R$ 4,95

R$ 4,95 gets you from Viracopos to São Domingos

Line 1.87 – São Domingos is a standard city bus linking Viracopos International Airport (VCP) with the São Domingos area in Campinas for R$ 4,95 per ride. The route serves Terminal T1 outside the arrivals area, so you’re using regular public transport, not an airport shuttle or coach.

Expect the ride to run around 30–40 minutes between VCP and São Domingos, depending on Campinas traffic and time of day. The bus follows a fixed route and makes intermediate stops, so the lower R$ 4,95 fare comes with a slightly longer travel time than a taxi or app car on the same stretch.

You pay the R$ 4,95 on board or at the terminal stop, in line with Campinas city bus rules, and the price is per person, not per group. Compared with a rideshare from Terminal T1, that single-seat fare is usually the lowest-cost motorized option out of the airport if you’re headed toward São Domingos or nearby neighborhoods.

Line 1.87 – São Domingos serves everyday commuters as well as airport passengers, so don’t expect big luggage racks or extra baggage space. If you’re rolling a full-size 23 kg checked bag out of T1 arrivals, plan to keep it by your seat or feet during the 30–40 minute ride and board early at the airport stop to avoid standing.

Service frequency, first/last bus times, and any weekend adjustments are set by the Campinas transit authority, not by the airport or airlines at VCP. Before walking out of Terminal T1, check the current Line 1.87 timetable on an official city or operator source so you’re not stuck adding another 30 minutes to your day waiting at the curb.

Practical tip: Carry small notes or coins close to R$ 4,95 when leaving T1; exact or near-exact change usually speeds boarding on Line 1.87 – São Domingos and helps you grab a seat for the 30–40 minute ride.
