Our Recommendation
7.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is generally superior for its perspective on the winding Tietê River and the more urbanized approach into the Campinas metropolitan area.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
💧

Tietê River

The historic river that flows inland, showing its wide bends and hydroelectric potential.

🏭

Piracicaba Region

Industrial complexes and the urban sprawl of one of the state's most productive regions.

🛫

Viracopos Approach

Excellent views of the massive cargo terminals and the new passenger terminal during the final descent.

🌳

Mata Atlântica Pockets

Small remaining fragments of Atlantic Forest amidst the heavy agricultural development.

The right side provides a better view of the landing patterns into VCP. During the afternoon, this side is shaded, making it easier to take photos without glare from the sun.

Left Side Highlights
6.4
🚜

Sugarcane Plantations

Vast green and gold patterns of the São Paulo interior's massive sugar and ethanol industry.

🏫

São Carlos

Aerial view of one of Brazil's main educational hubs and its distinctive technological parks.

🛣️

Rodovia Washington Luís

Bird's-eye view of the busy SP-310 highway cutting through the interior landscape.

🏙️

Araraquara

The 'Morada do Sol' city skyline often visible shortly after departure from JTC.

Sit on the left if you want to see the sunset during late afternoon flights, as you will be facing North-East/East. Early morning flights offer soft light over the agricultural plains.
