Maceió Coral Reefs
Breathtaking views of the turquoise waters and natural pools of Pajuçara and Ponta Verde right after takeoff.
Bahian Coastline
Vast stretches of coconut groves and white sand beaches along the northern coast of Bahia.
Salvador & All Saints Bay
A distant but clear view of the historic capital of Bahia and its expansive bay if the flight path stays coastal.
Serra do Mar
Dramatic views of the Atlantic Forest-covered mountain ranges as you cross into the Southeast region.
Paraíba Valley
Aerial perspective of major industrial cities like São José dos Campos during the initial descent phase.
For the best experience, choose a window seat on the left to capture the vibrant blues of the Alagoas sea. On morning flights, the sun will be on this side, which might cause glare, so afternoon flights are preferred for photography. Keep your camera ready within the first 10 minutes of flight for the best reef views.
