Goiânia Skyline
Aerial view of the northern sectors of Goiânia immediately after takeoff from Santa Genoveva.
Cerrado Biome
Vast stretches of the Brazilian savanna characterized by twisted trees and unique vegetation patterns.
Plano Piloto
The world-famous urban layout of Brasília, clearly visible in its shape of an airplane.
Esplanada dos Ministérios
A top-down view of the iconic Oscar Niemeyer-designed government buildings during final descent.
Lake Paranoá (North)
The expansive blue waters of the artificial lake bordering the city's residential North Wing.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see the 'Asa Norte' and the central axis. On morning flights, the sun will be on the opposite side, providing perfect lighting for photography of the architecture. Since this flight is extremely short (approx. 30-40 mins), stay alert from the moment the 10,000ft chime sounds.
