Search flights from CWB to CNF
Serra do Mar
Breathtaking views of the dense Atlantic Forest and steep escarpments that separate the Curitiba plateau from the coast.
Mantiqueira Mountains
Dramatic silhouettes of the Serra da Mantiqueira, one of Brazil's highest mountain ranges, often peeking through the clouds.
Belo Horizonte Landscape
As you descend, enjoy the rugged iron-rich hills and the iconic Serra do Curral formation surrounding the capital of Minas Gerais.
Paraíba do Sul Basin
Views of the winding rivers and valleys that define the border region between the states of São Paulo and Minas Gerais.
For the best experience, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the green mountains of the Serra do Mar. Ask for a seat well ahead or behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the mountainous terrain of Minas Gerais during descent.

Curitiba Urban Grid
A clear view of Curitiba's planned urban layout and the distinctive Botanical Garden area shortly after departure.
São Paulo Countryside
Expansive views of the agricultural heartland of São Paulo state, featuring a patchwork of coffee and sugarcane plantations.
Sunset Horizon
On late afternoon flights, this side provides a direct view of the setting sun over the Brazilian highlands.
Choose this side if you are flying in the late afternoon to catch the sunset. It is also the better side for viewing the sprawling suburbs of Belo Horizonte during certain approach patterns into Confins (CNF).
