Which side of the plane to sit from Ministro Pistarini International Airport (Buenos Aires) to Presidente Juscelino Kubistschek International Airport (Brasilia)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring a panoramic departure over Buenos Aires and the Rio de la Plata, followed by potential views of the Brazilian coastline and a stunning approach over Brasilia's Lake Paranoá.
Buenos Aires Skyline
Unmatched aerial views of the Microcentro, Puerto Madero, and the dense urban grid of the Argentine capital during climb-out.
Rio de la Plata
The massive, silty-brown estuary of the Parana and Uruguay rivers, showcasing its incredible width and sediment plumes.
Atlantic Coastline
Depending on the specific air corridor, glimpses of the Uruguayan and Southern Brazilian coast may be visible in the distance.
Lake Paranoá
The sparkling man-made lake that surrounds the eastern portion of Brasilia, often providing a clear reference point during landing.
Plano Piloto
The 'airplane-shaped' urban layout of Brasilia, including the Esplanade of Ministries and the National Congress building.
The right side is essential for the iconic 'Plano Piloto' view of Brasilia; try to sit behind the wing for an unobstructed view of the city's architectural geometry. For morning flights, the sun will be on this side, so high-quality sunglasses are recommended for the first half of the trip.
Argentine Pampas
Vast, fertile grasslands extending toward the horizon immediately after leaving the Buenos Aires metropolitan area.
Serra da Mantiqueira
Distal views of the high-altitude mountain ranges of southeastern Brazil as the flight crosses into São Paulo state.
Cerrado Plateau
The unique savanna landscape of Central Brazil, characterized by twisted trees and red soil, visible during the descent.
Sunset Horizon
On late afternoon flights, this side provides a front-row seat to the sun setting over the South American interior.
Choose this side for late afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset without direct solar glare for most of the journey. It is also the better side for observing the transition from the humid Pampa to the dry Cerrado biome of the Brazilian highlands.
