Sao Paulo to Foz Do Iguacu flight path: GRU to IGU

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Sao Paulo to Foz Do Iguacu. The left side offers the São Paulo skyline on departure and, more importantly, the rare chance to glimpse Iguaçu Falls and the Paraná River system on final approach — features unmatched by the right side's flat agricultural plains for most of the flight.

During takeoff from Guarulhos (GRU), sit on the Left side for the best views. Departing GRU, the aircraft typically climbs and banks toward the southwest to align with the Foz do Iguaçu routing, giving left-side passengers a sweeping view of São Paulo's dense urban sprawl and the Serra do Mar foothills falling away behind the city before the plains take over. Notable sights include: São Paulo metropolitan skyline, Tietê River valley, Serra do Mar foothills.

When landing at Cataratas International (IGU), sit on the Left side for the best views. On approach into IGU, the flight path often crosses near the confluence of the Paraná and Iguaçu rivers, giving left-side passengers a chance to see the massive white mist plumes of Iguaçu Falls and the wide turquoise Paraná reservoir near Itaipu Dam before touchdown. Notable sights include: Iguaçu Falls mist plumes, Paraná River, Itaipu Dam reservoir, Iguaçu National Park forest canopy.

The flight from Guarulhos (GRU) to Cataratas International (IGU) takes 1h 50m.
