Itaimbezinho Canyons
Dramatic vertical cliffs and deep valleys of the Aparados da Serra National Park shortly after departing CXJ.
Serra Geral Edge
The massive geological escarpment where the high plateau drops sharply toward the coastal plain of Santa Catarina.
Serra do Mar
The incredibly lush, protected Atlantic Rainforest covering the rugged mountains east of Curitiba during descent.
Coastal Glimpse
On very clear days, the distant glimmer of the Atlantic Ocean and the northern coastline of Santa Catarina are visible.
Sit here to witness the spectacular canyons shortly after departure. Morning flights are ideal to avoid glare and see the sun lighting up the eastern canyon walls. During the descent into CWB, the contrast between the green mountains and the city is a highlight.

Caxias Highlands
The dense urban sprawl of Caxias do Sul set against the rolling hills of the Serra Gaúcha immediately after takeoff.
Canoas River
Winding river systems carving through the high plateaus of Santa Catarina state as the flight heads north.
Araucaria Groves
Clusters of the prehistoric-looking Brazilian pine trees that define the landscape of the southern highlands.
Curitiba West Side
A clear view of the Barigui Park area and the high-rise residential districts of Curitiba during the final approach.
