Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most iconic views of Brasilia's architectural layout upon departure and superior sunset perspectives over the Tocantins river basin during afternoon flights.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Brasília Pilot Plan

The world-famous 'airplane' shape of the capital city is often visible during the initial climb from BSB.

💧

Paranoá Lake

A vast artificial lake that wraps around the eastern and southern wings of the Federal District.

🌾

Cerrado Plateaus

Expansive views of the Brazilian Savannah, characterized by twisted trees and deep red soil.

🌊

Tocantins River

Aerial views of the massive river system that flows northward toward the Amazon.

🌅

Savannah Sunset

Breathtaking horizon views as the sun sets over the flat, high-altitude plains of central Brazil.

Request a window seat on the left for the best chance to see the iconic urban design of Brasília. For flights between 4 PM and 6 PM, the left side provides a front-row seat to the intense orange and pink hues of the Cerrado sunset. As you approach Araguaína, look for the transition from open savannah to denser forest patches.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
⛰️

Chapada dos Veadeiros

Distant views of the ancient geological plateaus and high-altitude grasslands to the northeast.

🚜

Agribusiness Mosaic

Intricate geometric patterns of large-scale soybean and corn farms across the MATOPIBA region.

🏞️

Serra Geral

Rugged mountain ranges that mark the natural boundary between the states of Tocantins and Bahia.

⛈️

Tropical Cumulus

Impressive cloud formations common in the late afternoon due to the region's high humidity and heat.

🛬

Araguaína Perimeter

View of the growing urban center and local cattle ranching landscape during the final approach.

The right side is ideal for morning flights (7 AM to 10 AM) to enjoy the sunrise without direct glare. It provides a clearer view of the vast agricultural expansion moving north. Keep an eye out for the Serra Geral mountain range in the distance, which offers a dramatic contrast to the otherwise flat terrain.
