Teles Pires River
Witness the winding path of this major Amazon tributary immediately after departing Alta Floresta.
Mato Grosso Soy Belt
Expansive, geometric agricultural landscapes showcasing the scale of Brazil's 'breadbasket' region.
Chapada dos Guimarães
Breathtaking views of the red sandstone escarpments and plateaus as the flight nears the metropolitan area.
Lake Manso
The large reservoir of the Manso Dam is often visible to the East before the final approach.
For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On morning flights, the sun will be on this side, so keep your shades down until you reach the Chapada region. The dramatic cliff faces are most visible during the last 15 minutes of the flight.
