Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most dramatic scenery, featuring the lush Atlantic Forest of the Serra do Mar and the sharp transition into the Paraná plateau.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Campinas Metropolitan Area

Aerial view of the industrial and urban sprawl of Campinas and Jundiaí immediately after takeoff.

🌳

Serra do Japi

A protected ecological reserve showing some of the last remaining continuous stretches of Atlantic Forest in the region.

⛰️

Serra do Mar Peaks

Dramatic mountain ridges and deep green valleys that define the border between the coastal plains and the interior plateau.

💧

Capivari Reservoir

A winding water body nestled within the mountains, often visible just before the final descent into the Curitiba region.

Sit on the left to capture the rugged beauty of the mountains. On early morning flights, the sun rises on this side, which can cause glare, so window shades or sunglasses are recommended. The best views of the forest occur about 20 minutes into the flight.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🏢

Sorocaba Skyline

A clear view of the city of Sorocaba and its surrounding industrial hubs shortly after departure.

🌊

Itupararanga Dam

A large reservoir surrounded by rolling hills, providing a scenic blue landmark amidst the green landscape.

🚜

Agricultural Highlands

Vast stretches of farmland and red-soil fields typical of the interior of São Paulo and northern Paraná.

🏘️

Curitiba Urban Grid

A bird's-eye view of Curitiba's organized urban planning and parks as the flight aligns with the runway at CWB.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side, providing perfect lighting for photography of the plateau. It offers a more 'metropolitan' view, focusing on the development of the Southern Brazilian interior.
