Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the vast hydrological networks of the Paranapanema and Tietê river basins, along with the expansive Jurumirim Reservoir and the urban skyline of Campinas during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌾

Paraná Soy Belt

Massive geometric agricultural mosaics that define the economy of western and central Paraná.

💧

Paranapanema River Border

The natural border between Paraná and São Paulo states, marked by large hydroelectric dams and wide blue channels.

🏖️

Jurumirim Reservoir

A massive and stunning body of water near Avaré, often appearing like an inland sea with white sandy edges.

🌆

Campinas Skyline

A clear view of the dense high-rises of downtown Campinas as the aircraft banks for its final approach into Viracopos.

Sit on the right for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. The highlight of the route is the Jurumirim Reservoir; look for it roughly 40 minutes into the flight. During the final descent, this side typically offers a better perspective of the sprawling urban area of Campinas.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🏙️

Cascavel City Center

Aerial view of the planned city grid and the Cathedral of Our Lady of Aparecida immediately after takeoff from CAC.

🌊

Ivaí River Meanders

Watch the intricate serpentine curves of the Ivaí River as it flows through the fertile red soils of northern Paraná.

🌳

Tibagi Highlands

The landscape shifts into more rugged terrain and patches of Atlantic Forest as you cross into central Paraná.

🏭

Piracicaba Industrial Hub

On the descent, view the dense industrial and agricultural clusters of one of São Paulo's most productive regions.

Choose this side for late afternoon flights to avoid the direct sun glare from the north. Keep an eye out for the 'Terra Roxa' (deep red soil) patterns which are particularly vibrant in the first half of the flight under mid-day sun.
