Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the dramatic Serra de Maracaju and the intricate agricultural patterns of the interior of Parana, plus a better angle of Curitiba during takeoff.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Curitiba Urban View

Comprehensive view of the Curitiba metropolitan area and the Atlantic Forest surroundings immediately after takeoff from Afonso Pena.

🏞️

Guartela State Park

Scenic views of the Tibagi River canyon, one of the longest canyons in the world, visible during the first half of the flight.

🚜

Red Soil Mosaic

Striking geometric patterns of coffee and soybean plantations set against the famous Terra Roxa (red earth) of northern Parana.

⛰️

Serra de Maracaju

Rugged plateaus and escarpments that define the transition into the Mato Grosso do Sul plains during the descent phase.

✈️

CGR Approach

Excellent vantage point of Campo Grande southern suburbs as the plane aligns for landing at Campo Grande Airport.

Sit on the left for the best morning light to avoid glare. During takeoff from CWB, the left side usually faces the dense city center. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing to capture the dramatic drop-off of the Serra de Maracaju.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Northern Parana Hubs

Potential views of major agricultural cities like Londrina and Maringa depending on the specific flight airway assigned.

🌊

Parana River Crossing

A massive crossing of one of South America longest rivers, often featuring large hydroelectric dams and wide floodplains.

🏝️

Ilha Grande Archipelago

An intricate network of islands and sandbanks visible where the Parana River acts as a border between the two states.

🌾

Cerrado Plains

Expansive views of the vast agricultural frontier and Cerrado horizon, particularly beautiful during high visibility days.

🌅

Golden Hour Horizon

On late afternoon flights, this side offers a spectacular view of the sun setting over the distant wetlands and plains.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to avoid the direct western sun. The highlight is the crossing of the Parana River; look for the massive scale of the water system and the bridge structures connecting Parana and Mato Grosso do Sul.
