SAO PAULO, Brazil - Brazil's defense minister says the government may build a fourth airport in Sao Paulo and says it would be privately run.
Defense Minister Nelson Jobim also says the government may also privatize the operations of the international airport in Rio de Janeiro and another in the city of Campinas.
Jobim says changes are needed to prepare for an influx of visitors during the 2014 soccer World Cup and if Rio wins its bid for the 2016 Olympics.
There was no word on where the new airport in Sao Paulo would be built.
Jobim told reporters Friday that the moves are part of a plan to streamline Brazil's air system, which suffer from chronic congestion and delays. The nation also has been an increase in deadly accidents.
