Cached-fare history: across 6 months, Mar is the cheapest for LON → SAO. Best time to be there: Mar–May · Sep–Nov.
Fares bottom out in March around $895 and peak in January near $1,042 — a $147 spread across the 6 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 14 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip — ticketed under Wizz Air Malta, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $895 for 9,497 km each way, that works out to about $47 per 1,000 km flown. That is about the $44 typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 30 departure cities we track at a similar distance from São Paulo, this fare ranks 21st — 2.5× the $357 we hold from Boston. For context, the middle fare among the 36 routes of similar length we watch out of London is $670.

LON → SAO, answered.
Is $895 a good price for London to São Paulo?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $1,035 round-trip and this fare is 14% under it, about $140. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from London to São Paulo?
Across 6 months of cached-fare history, Mar comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in São Paulo are Mar–May · Sep–Nov — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LON → São Paulo?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 6 months of cached fares, Mar comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from London to São Paulo?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Wizz Air Malta. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
