The right side scores higher due to the dramatic terrain transition from flat Pampas to the Sierras de Córdoba during descent and landing, providing greater visual variety and geological interest than the left side's urban sprawl and relatively flat departure. The mountain approach offers more distinctive landmarks and scenic drama across the full flight segment.
Flight Path
The flight path crosses the Paraná River valley and transitions from São Paulo's humid subtropical landscape through the Misiones Province region of Argentina, then over the rolling terrain of northern Corrientes Province before reaching the Pampas and approaching the Sierras de Córdoba. The Paraná River and its tributaries are visible during the central portion of the flight, marking the border region between Brazil and Argentina.
