Our Recommendation
7.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the massive Corumbá reservoir system and a more dramatic transition into the rugged hilly terrain of Minas Gerais.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Corumbá Reservoir

Large, intricate blue waterways created by the hydroelectric dams along the Corumbá River near the border.

〰️

Rio Paranaíba

The winding river that marks the natural border between the states of Goiás and Minas Gerais.

🐄

Minas Highlands

The landscape shifts from flat plains to the undulating hills and traditional cattle ranches of the Triângulo Mineiro.

🏙️

BH Skyline

Distant views of the dense skyline of Belo Horizonte and the Contagem industrial hub depending on the landing pattern.

The right side is ideal for spotting the massive water bodies of the Corumbá system. For evening flights, you may catch a sunset over the rolling hills of Minas. Try to secure a seat behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the reservoirs.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🏙️

Goiânia Urban Sprawl

Aerial view of the planned city layout and the green patches of the 'Garden City' shortly after takeoff.

🚜

Cerrado Mosaics

Expansive agricultural patterns and indigenous Cerrado vegetation characteristic of the Central-West region.

⛰️

Serra do Espinhaço

The northern edges of this ancient mountain range become visible during the final descent into the Belo Horizonte area.

✈️

Vespasiano Views

The northern residential sectors of the metropolitan area as the aircraft aligns for the final approach.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. This side provides a better perspective of the vast northern plains of Minas Gerais and the distinct silhouette of the Espinhaço mountains during the late stages of flight.
