Which side of the plane to sit from Araguaína Airport (Araguaina) to João Correa da Rocha Airport (Maraba)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the iconic river confluences and the massive infrastructure that defines the Marabá region, including the strategic rail bridge crossing the Tocantins.
Search flights from AUX to MAB
Rio Araguaia Crossing
A magnificent view of the Araguaia River, which serves as the natural border between the states of Tocantins and Pará.
River Sandbars
During the dry season, white sandy beaches and temporary islands appear along the riverbanks, creating a striking contrast with the water.
Tocantins-Itacaiúnas Confluence
The dramatic meeting point of the dark waters of the Itacaiúnas and the muddy waters of the Tocantins near Marabá's center.
Carajás Rail Bridge
The impressive 2.3km long bridge used by the Carajás Railroad to transport iron ore, visible during the final descent into MAB.
The right side is ideal for morning flights (07:00-10:00) when the sun illuminates the river confluences perfectly. During the dry season (July to September), the Araguaia sandbars are exceptionally vivid from this side. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes of the flight for the best bridge and river shots.

Araguaína Departure
Aerial view of the city of Araguaína, the commercial heart of northern Tocantins, shortly after takeoff.
Bico do Papagaio Ranches
Extensive cattle ranching landscapes that characterize the transition between the Cerrado and the Amazon biome.
Serra de Marabá
Low-lying mountain ranges and rocky outcrops visible as you enter the southeastern territory of Pará.
Lower Tocantins Flow
Views of the Tocantins River stretching south toward the massive Tucuruí reservoir region.
Sit toward the front to avoid wing obstruction of the Araguaína city layout. Afternoon flights on this side may experience significant glare as the sun moves west, potentially obscuring the horizon details.
