Which side of the plane to sit from Viracopos International Airport (Campinas) to Cascavel Airport (Cascavel)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers spectacular views of the massive river systems and reservoirs that define the border between São Paulo and Paraná states, specifically the Paranapanema River complex.
Paranapanema Reservoirs
Stunning views of the massive blue reservoirs like Capivara and Chavantes, which create a jagged, beautiful coastline in the interior.
Terra Roxa Landscapes
Observe the iconic deep-red soil of northern Paraná, providing a sharp color contrast with the lush green crops.
Tietê River Meanders
Depending on the specific ATC routing, you may catch glimpses of the Tietê River's wide stretches further north.
Londrina-Maringá Corridor
On clear days, the distant urban clusters of northern Paraná's major cities can be spotted on the horizon.
The right side is the prime choice for morning flights, as the sun illuminates the water bodies and the red soil perfectly. Keep your camera ready about 30-40 minutes into the flight to capture the intricate shapes of the river reservoirs. Look for the distinct change in soil color as you cross the border into Paraná.
Campinas Urban Area
Excellent views of the sprawling industrial and residential hubs of Campinas and Indaiatuba shortly after takeoff.
Serra do Japi
Distant views of the protected Atlantic Forest mountain range located to the south of the flight corridor.
Central Paraná Plains
A birds-eye view of the vast, geometric agricultural plots that dominate the landscape of central Paraná.
Cascavel Outskirts
Visuals of the southern neighborhoods and the expanding urban footprint of Cascavel during the final approach.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh direct sunlight coming from the north. This side is better for observing the urban layout of the interior cities and the transition from São Paulo's industrial belt to Paraná's agricultural heartland.
