Região dos Lagos
Clear views of the brilliant blue waters and white sand dunes of Cabo Frio and Arraial do Cabo.
Rio de Janeiro Panorama

Serra do Mar
The lush, green escarpments of the coastal mountain range as the aircraft tracks the shoreline.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the illuminated coastline without the sun's glare. This side is consistently more scenic as it hugs the Atlantic coast for the first two-thirds of the journey. Keep your camera ready about 35 minutes after departure for the stunning turquoise lagoons of the Lakes Region.

Serra da Mantiqueira
Views of the inland mountain range that separates the coast from the plateau of Minas Gerais.
Vale do Paraíba
The industrial corridor and urban sprawl of major interior cities like São José dos Campos.
Campinas Approach
A wide view of the Campinas metropolitan area and the rolling hills of the São Paulo countryside during descent.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to watch the sunset over the inland mountains. While less coastal, it offers a better view of the high peaks of the Mantiqueira range in the distance. During the final approach into VCP, this side often provides a clearer view of the Campinas city center depending on the wind direction.
