Lake Paranoá
Immediate view of Brasilia's artificial lake and the Juscelino Kubitschek Bridge during the initial climb.
Iron Quadrangle
Witness the dramatic red earth and open-pit mines of central Minas Gerais from cruising altitude.
Pico da Bandeira
On clear days, the third highest peak in Brazil located in the Serra do Caparaó may be visible to the south.
Terceira Ponte
A stunning view of the bridge connecting Vitoria and Vila Velha as the plane aligns with the runway.
Convento da Penha
The most famous landmark of Espírito Santo, perched atop a 154-meter high cliff, is visible just before landing.
Sit on the right for the iconic 'Vitoria approach.' Afternoon flights are best as the sun illuminates the granite mountains and the bay. Try to get a seat away from the wing to fully see the dramatic coastline and the urban layout of Vila Velha during the final descent.

Spot the massive blue waters of the São Francisco River dam cutting through the dry landscape of Minas Gerais.
