Manaus is about 2200 km from São Paulo or Rio de Janeiro which takes about four hours by air. From North America, it's much faster if you go direct without backtracking via SP or Rio. From Europe, you first have to go North/Central America (which is too far west) or SP/Rio (too far south), so both ways are about the same distance.
