Which side of the plane to sit from Marechal Rondon Airport (Cuiaba) to Campo Grande Airport (Campo Grande)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the vast Pantanal wetlands, providing a front-row seat to the meandering rivers and seasonal lagoons that define this UNESCO World Heritage site.
The Pantanal North
A breathtaking expanse of the world's largest tropical wetland, visible for the majority of the flight.
Cuiabá River Meanders
The intricate, snake-like curves of the Rio Cuiabá as it flows south toward the Paraguay River.
Baía de Chacororé
One of the largest permanent lagoons in the northern Pantanal, appearing as a massive silver mirror.
Wetland Sunsets
On late afternoon flights, the reflection of the sun on the flooded plains creates a spectacular orange and pink landscape.
The right side is essential for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the water. During the flood season (February to April), look for the 'espelhamento' effect where the sky reflects perfectly on the ground. Use a window seat behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the river patterns.
Cuiabá Metropolitan Area
Immediate views of the state capital and the Arena Pantanal stadium shortly after takeoff from CGB.
Serra de São Vicente
Dramatic rock formations and cliffs that mark the transition between the plateaus and the lowland plains.
Agribusiness Mosaic
Geometric patterns of massive soy and corn plantations typical of the Mato Grosso plateau region.
Sit on the left for morning flights to enjoy the soft light illuminating the Serra de São Vicente cliffs. This side is also better for spotting the distant silhouettes of the Chapada dos Guimarães if the pilot takes a slightly eastern departure corridor.
