Aracaju - Santa Maria International Airport (IATA: AJU, ICAO: SBAR) is an international airport located in the city of Aracaju, in the state of Sergipe, in Brazil.

It occupies an area of more than 5 km2. Daily, about 6 thousand people circulate through the terminal. More than 900 employees work at the airport complex to serve an average of 200,000 passengers per month. It has 54 daily flights, 27 flights arrive and 27 flights depart.

Every day, the airport has intense helicopter operations in order to transport employees to the oil platforms, located on the coast of Sergipe.

To deepen the studies on the history of aviation, the airport has a cultural space, a civil aviation memorial and a research center with texts, documents, reproductions in large formats.

It is 12 km from the center of Aracaju and is located in the southern region of the city, 3.5 km from the main beaches and hotels in the capital. In addition to the daily scheduled flights of LATAM, Gol, Azul and VoePass. Chilean LAN Chile has already operated a charter flight to the city, with an Airbus A320, the Uruguayan PLUNA and the American American Airlines have already brought flights to the airport, also charter, both with the Boeing 757, being one of the largest aircraft to pass through on here.

The release of more than R $ 300 million in funds was confirmed for the construction of a new passenger terminal, expansion of the airstrip and takeoff and the new aircraft parking space. The works only started in 2013 with a deadline for completion in 2014.
In 2014, there was a movement around the alteration of the airport nomenclature. Aiming to honor the former PT governor Marcelo Déda, who died in December 2013 in full term of his mandate, the act seeks to recognize one of the greatest reformers of the political movement in the history of the state of Sergipe. This fact has heightened the local political spirit with the possibility of nominating the well-known parliamentarian Pedro Valadares who died in the same accident with the then presidential candidate Eduardo Campos in 2014. More recently, other more traditional and truly representative names of the local culture too have been mentioned, such as Silvio Romero and Tobias Barreto. The name "Santa Maria" is a reference to the river channel of the same name opened in 1902 that had the purpose of interconnecting the Poxim and Vaza-Barris rivers. This river channel runs to the bottom of the airport, separating it from the Santa Maria complex.

As of 2015, Aracaju International Airport is undergoing a new phase of renovation. In this stage, after completing the completion of another gate / landing gate, improvements were made to the instrumentation in the yard to support larger aircraft, as well as an increase in the aircraft management capacity in the yard, including taxiways. At the end of 2015, actions to reduce local taxes and that put a burden on airlines were implemented, a fact that caused the increase of 6 new daily flights, thus increasing the flow of passengers in the city in 2014.

In contrast to the aforementioned scenario, in 2016 new demands are being analyzed. New perspectives to establish Voepass Linhas Aéreas flights and international flights by TAP Portugal, Air Europa and Gol, among other airlines, are in a feasibility study in order to accelerate local connectivity with cities around the globe. In line with the increase in the influence of air flow in the region, it was announced that even in this current year of 2016, the GOL company will increase its number of flights to the capital of Sergipe from 64 to 82 weekly flights, that is, an instant increase of 18 flights. more than the current number.
