AEP → GRU
Which side of the plane to sit from Jorge Newbery Airpark (Buenos Aires) to Guarulhos - Governador André Franco Montoro International Airport (Sao Paulo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a continuous panorama of the South Atlantic coastline, featuring the glamorous beaches of Uruguay and the stunning island geography of Southern Brazil.
Rio de la Plata
The vast estuary separating Argentina and Uruguay, showing a distinct color transition from river silt to ocean blue.
Punta del Este Peninsula
Clear views of Uruguay's premier resort town, including the iconic lighthouse and high-rise beach front.
Florianópolis Island
Stunning aerial view of the Ilha de Santa Catarina, its inland lagoons, and world-class surf beaches.
Port of Santos
One of the largest ports in the world, often visible just before the aircraft turns inland for the final approach.
Ilhabela Archipelago
Dramatic, forested volcanic islands surrounded by deep blue Atlantic waters near the Sao Paulo state coastline.
The right side is superior for coastal photography. A morning flight is ideal as the sun rises over the ocean, illuminating the Brazilian coastline perfectly without glare. Keep your camera ready approximately 45 to 60 minutes into the flight for the best views of the Santa Catarina coastline and the island of Florianópolis.
Buenos Aires Skyline
Breathtaking views of the Argentine capital's dense urban grid and parks immediately after rotation from AEP.
Uruguayan Pampa
The green, rolling agricultural heartland of inland Uruguay as the plane tracks northeast towards Brazil.
Serra do Mar Range
Dense, mist-covered Atlantic Forest mountains that rise sharply near the approach to the Sao Paulo plateau.
Sao Paulo Metropolitan Area
The immense, seemingly endless urban expansion of the Guarulhos and North Zone districts during the final landing phase.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Buenos Aires waterfront and downtown skyscrapers upon takeoff. This side also offers a clear perspective of the massive urban density of Sao Paulo's metropolitan area during the final descent into GRU. Avoid seats over the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Serra do Mar mountains.
