FLN → EZE
Which side of the plane to sit from Hercílio Luz International Airport (Florianopolis) to Ministro Pistarini International Airport (Buenos Aires)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior scenic experience, featuring the stunning coastline of Southern Brazil, the vast Lagoa dos Patos, and a bird's-eye view of the Uruguayan Riviera including Punta del Este.
Ilha de Santa Catarina
Immediately after takeoff, enjoy views of the southern beaches of Florianopolis and the lush, green hills of the island.
Atlantic Coastline
A continuous view of the rugged cliffs and white sand beaches of Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul.
Lagoa dos Patos
Marvel at the immense scale of one of the world's largest lagoons as you fly past the Porto Alegre region.
Punta del Este
Spot the famous Uruguayan resort peninsula and its iconic high-rise skyline jutting into the Atlantic.
Rio de la Plata Estuary
Observe the striking contrast where the brown silty river water meets the deep blue of the ocean.
Book a window seat on the left (A/B) for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun. This side is particularly spectacular during clear weather when the Uruguayan coastline is fully visible. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before descent for the Punta del Este shoreline.
Serra Geral Mountains
Views of the inland plateaus and mountain ranges that separate the coast from the Brazilian interior.
Gaucho Pampas
The landscape transforms into the vast, flat agricultural plains of Southern Brazil and Northern Uruguay.
Paraná Delta
During the approach to Buenos Aires, look for the intricate network of islands and brown channels of the Paraná River.
Greater Buenos Aires
The massive urban sprawl and grid pattern of the Argentine capital become visible during the final descent into EZE.
The right side (F/K) is ideal for sunset views if flying in the late afternoon. It offers a better perspective of the dense urban layout of Buenos Aires if the aircraft approaches from the north. Watch for the complex irrigation patterns in the rural landscapes of Uruguay.
