Which side of the plane to sit from Diomício Freitas Airport (Criciuma) to Viracopos International Airport (Campinas)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point of the Brazilian coastline, featuring the stunning island of Florianópolis, the high-rise skyline of Balneário Camboriú, and the lush Atlantic Forest of the Serra do Mar mountain range.
Santa Catarina Coastline
Beautiful views of the beaches around Laguna, Imbituba, and Garopaba early in the flight.
Florianópolis Island
A stunning panoramic view of the 'Magic Island', including the lagoons and North/South bays.
Balneário Camboriú
The impressive high-rise skyline, often referred to as the 'Dubai of Brazil', right against the shore.
Atlantic Ocean
Expansive views of the deep blue sea and the occasional cargo ship heading to coastal ports.
Serra do Mar
The dense, green Atlantic Forest covering the steep mountain slopes that meet the sea.
Babitonga Bay
The intricate waterways and islands near Joinville and São Francisco do Sul.
Sit on the right for morning flights to see the sun rising over the Atlantic. This side is significantly more scenic as it hugs the coastline for the first half of the journey. For the best views of Florianópolis, try to get a seat away from the wing, as the plane usually passes slightly inland of the island.
Serra Geral Canyons
Dramatic cliff formations and rugged plateau edges shortly after departing from Criciúma.
Araucaria Forests
Patches of the iconic 'Pinheiro-do-Paraná' visible throughout the highlands of Santa Catarina.
Greater Curitiba
Aerial view of the western suburbs and urban sprawl of the Paraná state capital.
São Paulo Countryside
Transition into the rolling hills and agricultural landscapes of southern São Paulo state.
Interior Sunset
Excellent views of the sunset over the inland mountains on late afternoon flights.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the interior highlands. This side is also better for observing the dramatic transitions in terrain from the coastal mountains to the inland plateaus. Keep an eye out for the reservoir systems around Curitiba during mid-flight.
