Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior perspective of Lake Paranoá upon departure and more direct views of the São Francisco River basin and the religious landmarks of Juazeiro do Norte during descent.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Lake Paranoá

Spectacular views of the artificial lake surrounding the capital and its modern bridges.

🏞️

São Francisco River

The 'River of National Integration' carving through the dry landscape of the interior.

🏙️

Sobradinho Reservoir

One of the world's largest man-made lakes visible in the distance toward the east.

🙏

Colina do Horto

The iconic 27-meter tall statue of Padre Cícero overlooking the city during the landing pattern.

Opt for the right side on afternoon flights for the best lighting. During the descent, look specifically for the white statue of Padre Cícero on the hill, which is a major cultural landmark of the region.

Left Side Highlights
7.3
🏛️

Brasilia Pilot Plan

Aerial view of the iconic airplane-shaped city layout and the Eixo Monumental.

🌾

Cerrado Plateau

Vast stretches of the Brazilian Savanna transitioning into the semi-arid Sertão.

⛰️

Araripe Escarpment

The dramatic northern cliffs of the Chapada do Araripe plateau as you enter Ceará.

🏜️

Caatinga Biome

Unique white-forest vegetation typical of the Northeastern Brazilian interior.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. This side is better for spotting the sharp geological lines of the Araripe plateau's edge during the final 15 minutes of the flight.
