Which side of the plane to sit from Congonhas Airport (Sao Paulo) to Ten. Cel. Aviador César Bombonato Airport (Uberlandia)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the Serra da Mantiqueira mountain range and the expansive water reservoirs of the Cantareira system shortly after takeoff.
Search flights from CGH to UDI
Serra da Mantiqueira
The hazy blue peaks of one of Brazil's most important mountain ranges visible along the eastern horizon.
Cantareira Reservoirs
Large bodies of water including the Jaguari and Atibainha reservoirs that provide a beautiful blue contrast to the green hills.
Uberlândia Center
Depending on the wind direction, this side often offers a clear view of the Uberlândia city center and the Sabiá Park during final approach.
Cerrado Formations
Watch for the unique plateau formations (chapadas) as the aircraft begins its descent into the Triângulo Mineiro region.
This is the best side for morning flights as the sun will be on the opposite side, reducing glare for photography. Keep your camera ready about 10-15 minutes after takeoff to capture the mountain ridges. On the approach to UDI, the right side typically provides the best view of the city's growing skyline if landing on Runway 22.

São Paulo Skyline
Dramatic views of the Paulista Avenue skyscrapers and the dense urban sprawl of the South Zone immediately after departure.
Ibirapuera Park
A clear view of the city's main green space, contrasting sharply with the surrounding grey concrete jungle.
Sugarcane Belt
The transition into the interior reveals the massive geometric patterns of orange and sugarcane plantations that define the state's economy.
Sunset Views
On late afternoon flights, this side provides front-row seats to the sun setting over the rolling hills of the Cerrado.
Choose this side for late afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset. During takeoff from Congonhas, look out early to spot the Congonhas terminal itself and the heavy traffic of the 23 de Maio corridor. This side is also better if you want to see the rural landscapes of the Triângulo Mineiro plateau as you enter Minas Gerais state.
