Just a point of clarification...while MCO-GRU does not technically cross an ocean, in the cartographic sense, per our PWA it does.
PWA Section 2.A.182 - "Ocean Crossing" means a flight segment that:

c. To or from South America, as follows:
1. between the United States and any point further south of the equator than 3 degrees, 30 minutes south latitude on the South American continent
There are some concerns with the TA. This isn't one of them.
