Moussa Nakhl Tobias–Bauru/Arealva State Airport (IATA: JTC, ICAO: SBAE), commonly known as Bauru–Arealva Airport is the main airport serving Bauru and Arealva, Brazil. It is named after the Lebanese businessman and vice-mayor Moussa Nakhl Tobias (1940-2003), who immigrated to Brazil in 1959 and established himself in Bauru.
It is operated by DAESP.
The airport was built as a replacement to the older Bauru Airport and opened in May 2006, when all scheduled traffic was transferred to this new facility.
The airport is located 18 km (11 mi) from downtown Bauru, in the adjoining municipality of Arealva.
