Which side of the plane to sit from Viracopos International Airport (Campinas) to Nelson Ribeiro Guimarães Airport (Caldas Novas)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Corumbá Reservoir and the distinctive flat-topped Serra de Caldas plateau during the final approach into the thermal resort city.
Triângulo Mineiro
Expansive views of the productive agricultural heartland of Minas Gerais, featuring large cattle ranches and soy farms.
Serra de Caldas
The iconic flat-top mountain plateau that characterizes the local topography and provides the region's thermal waters.
Corumbá Reservoir
The massive, winding blue waters of the Corumbá lake system, popular for water sports and surrounded by luxury condos.
Caldas Novas Resorts
During the final descent, identify the numerous water parks and high-rise hotels that make this the world's largest hydrothermal resort.
Uberaba/Uberlândia Hubs
Distant but clear views of the major urban centers of the Minas Gerais interior depending on the specific air corridor.
The right side is essential for the approach into CLV. Sit here to see the Serra de Caldas State Park and the Corumbá Lake. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, providing perfectly lit landscapes for photography.
Interior São Paulo Sprawl
Clear views of the industrial and urban layouts of Limeira and Rio Claro shortly after takeoff from VCP.
Sugarcane Mosaic
Vast, geometric patterns of sugarcane plantations that define the landscape of northern São Paulo state.
Rio Grande Crossing
A wide view of the Rio Grande, marking the natural border between the states of São Paulo and Minas Gerais.
Sunset Horizon
On late afternoon flights, this side provides a perfect unobstructed view of the sun setting over the Brazilian Cerrado.
Choose this side for late afternoon departures to enjoy the sunset. During the cruise phase, keep an eye out for the transition from the lush green of the sugarcane belt to the redder soils of the Triângulo Mineiro region.
