Which side of the plane to sit from Bonito Airport (Bointo) to Viracopos International Airport (Campinas)?

The left side provides a superior perspective of the Serra da Bodoquena mountain range upon departure and captures the vast blue reservoirs of the Tietê river system during the cruise across São Paulo state.
Search flights from BYO to VCP
Serra da Bodoquena
Dramatic limestone cliffs and lush plateaus visible immediately after takeoff from Bonito.
Miranda River Basin
Complex meandering river systems and wetlands transitioning from the Pantanal ecosystem.
Presidente Prudente
View of one of western São Paulo's largest urban centers as you cross into the state.
Tietê River Reservoirs
The massive Barra Bonita and Promissão reservoirs appear as deep blue mirrors against the red soil.
Sugarcane Mosaic
A patchwork of emerald green sugarcane fields stretching to the horizon throughout the flight.
For the best photography, opt for a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Serra da Bodoquena. Keep your camera ready during the first 10 minutes of flight and again midway through for the Tietê river views. Window seats forward of the wing are preferred to avoid engine heat haze over the reservoirs.

Rio Paraná Crossing
One of South America's largest rivers, marking the border between Mato Grosso do Sul and São Paulo.
Agribusiness Heartland
Extensive views of large-scale grain farms and citrus groves characteristic of the southern interior.
Assis and Marília
Distant urban skylines of key regional economic hubs in the southern corridor of São Paulo state.
Serra do Japi
Lush Atlantic Forest remnants and rolling hills visible during the final descent into Viracopos.
The right side is ideal for capturing the sunset if you are on a late afternoon flight, though glare can be intense. Look for the massive hydro-electric dams along the Paraná river about 25-30 minutes after departure. On approach to VCP, this side often offers a better view of the Jundiaí region and the Serra do Japi reserve.
