Which side of the plane to sit from Lauro Kurtz Airport (Passo Fundo) to Erechim Airport (Erechim)?

Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side provides a superior view of the urban landscapes, including the dense city center of Passo Fundo and the iconic star-shaped urban planning of Erechim during the approach.

Right Side Highlights

πŸ™οΈ

Passo Fundo Skyline

A clear view of the surprisingly dense high-rise district of Passo Fundo shortly after takeoff.

🌲

Araucaria Clusters

Identify the iconic Parana Pines, which are native to this high-altitude subtropical climate.

πŸ“

Erechim's Radial Grid

A stunning aerial view of the city's unique street layout, inspired by 19th-century urbanism.

The right side is essential for seeing Erechim's city center during the final approach. Morning flights provide the best lighting for photography of the urban layout. Focus your attention about 5 minutes before landing to catch the 'Star of the North' layout.

Agribusiness Heartland

Vast stretches of soy, corn, and wheat fields that dominate the northern Rio Grande do Sul plateau.

Passo Fundo River Basin

Glimpses of the river and its small tributaries cutting through the red soil of the region.

Western Horizon

Excellent views of the sunset over the rolling hills of the Planalto MΓ©dio on late afternoon flights.

Best for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset. Keep an eye out for the large irrigation dams used in local agriculture. Watch for the transition from the higher plateau towards the Uruguay River valley.
