Which side of the plane to sit from Frank Miloye Milenkowichi–Marília State Airport (Marília) to Viracopos International Airport (Campinas)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is preferred for the dramatic views of the Cuesta de Botucatu, a unique basaltic escarpment that defines the region's topography, along with better views of the Jurumirim reservoir system.
Cuesta de Botucatu
Striking basaltic cliffs and sloping terrain that mark the transition between the Atlantic plateau and the depressions.
Jurumirim Reservoir
The expansive blue waters of the Paranapanema river basin visible on the southern horizon.
Serra do Japi
One of the last large areas of continuous Atlantic Forest in the state, appearing as a dark green mass near Jundiaí.
Indaiatuba Industrial Zone
Massive logistics centers and automotive testing tracks immediately before landing at Viracopos.
The right side is the 'geological' side. Afternoon flights provide the best lighting to highlight the shadows and textures of the Botucatu cliffs. During the descent, look out for the Toyota and General Motors facilities which are landmarks for the VCP approach.
Marília Canyons
Distinctive urban erosion features and deep valleys surrounding the city upon takeoff.
Bauru Hub
A clear view of one of the interior's largest rail and logistics centers mid-flight.
Tietê River Valley
Glimpses of the historical river that served as the primary route for inland exploration.
Campinas Skyline
Dense high-rise clusters of the central district visible during the final approach into VCP.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and to get a better view of the Bauru metropolitan area. This side is also excellent for spotting the patchwork of sugarcane and orange plantations that dominate the northern landscape.
