Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the Tietê River and the massive Barra Bonita reservoir, along with a clearer view of the Campinas urban sprawl shortly after takeoff.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Campinas Metropolitan Area

An expansive view of Brazil's 14th most populous city and its surrounding technical hubs right after departure.

🌊

Tietê River Meanders

Follow the winding path of the state's most famous river as it flows toward the Paraná.

⚓

Barra Bonita Reservoir

A massive and spectacular body of water formed by the dam, often showing boats and significant hydraulic infrastructure.

⛰️

Botucatu Cuesta

Dramatic basaltic ridges and cuestas visible in the distance, marking the transition in the state's topography.

🚜

Citrus Belt

Aerial views of some of the world's most productive orange groves near Limeira and Araraquara.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing for the best view of the Barra Bonita dam. Morning flights are ideal for this side as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the river systems and reservoirs with high clarity and minimal haze.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏘️

Indaiatuba Industrial Hub

Visible immediately after takeoff, showcasing the industrial expansion of the Campinas metropolitan region.

🌾

Agricultural Mosaic

Vast, colorful patterns of sugarcane and orange plantations that define the landscape of interior São Paulo.

🏙️

Marília Skyline

The dense high-rise clusters of Marília are often visible on the southern horizon during the latter half of the flight.

🛣️

Raposo Tavares Highway

Trace the path of the SP-270 highway which acts as a primary artery for the state's western development.

🌅

Southern Sunset

During winter months, the sun sets further north, providing a soft, long-lasting golden glow on this side.

Sit on this side for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun, as the flight path is mostly westward. It is the better side for viewing the dense agricultural patchwork of the 'Alta Paulista' region during descent into Presidente Prudente.
