Which side of the plane to sit from Santa Rosa Airport (Santa Rosa) to Santo Ângelo Airport (Santo Angelo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more direct view of the Santo Ângelo city center and its famous cathedral during the final approach, along with the industrial landscapes of Santa Rosa.
Soya Capital Industry
Aerial view of the large grain silos and industrial plants surrounding Santa Rosa shortly after takeoff.
Giruá Skyline
The 'Productivity Capital' is often visible to the east, showcasing the high density of agriculture in the region.
Rio Ijuí Crossing
The flight crosses the meandering path of the Ijuí River, which creates lush green corridors through the farmland.
Angelopolitana Cathedral
On the descent into GEL, the left side provides the best angle of the iconic Jesuit-style cathedral in Santo Ângelo.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to have the sun behind you. This is the optimal side for seeing the historic architecture of the Missions region during the short descent into Santo Ângelo. Keep your camera ready as the flight duration is exceptionally short.
Rural Mosaic
Extensive geometric patterns of soybean, wheat, and corn fields that change colors with the seasons.
Gaúcho Coxilhas
The characteristic rolling hills of Rio Grande do Sul, known as coxilhas, stretch toward the horizon.
Araucaria Patches
Small, scattered remnants of native Atlantic Forest and Araucaria trees dotting the agricultural landscape.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the vast plains of the Missions region. Since the altitude remains relatively low due to the short distance, the detail of the rural 'estâncias' (ranches) is quite clear.
