JTC → VCP
Which side of the plane to sit from Bauru - Arealva Airport (Bauru) to Viracopos International Airport (Campinas)?
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.
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.
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.
