The airlines operating are Varig and TAM as well as budget airlines BRA, Gol and Webjet.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Brazil's railway system suffered much damage during military regimes and transportation in Brazil by train is possible with the presence of few passenger lines like running from Curitiba to Paranagu\u00e1; the one from S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o del Rei to Tiradentes ; from Belo Horizonte to Vit\u00f3ria , the route from S\u00e3o Luis to Caraj\u00e1s, and the one from Macap\u00e1 to Serra do Navio .<\/li>\r\n \t<li>For long-distance travel, buses are suitable as well as affordable options.
