Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Recife to Fernando Do Noronha. Both sides score equally for the full flight due to the short duration and ocean-dominated route, but the right side wins on landing experience. Fernando de Noronha's volcanic island arrival is genuinely scenic and distinctive—a small but visually dramatic destination. The left side's Recife departure is pleasant but brief and urban rather than naturally dramatic. For a passenger prioritizing window views, the right side's island approach outweighs the left side's harbor departure.

During takeoff from Guararapes (REC), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side captures Recife's urban harbor and the Pernambuco coastline during climb-out. The city's waterfront, including the Capibaribe River delta and nearby beaches, provides brief but recognizable urban scenery before transition to open ocean. Notable sights include: Recife harbor and port facilities, Capibaribe River delta, Atlantic coastline north of the city.

When landing at Fernando De Noronha (FEN), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side offers the dramatic approach to Fernando de Noronha's volcanic island. The island's distinctive peaked volcanic topography, surrounding deep blue Atlantic waters, and the small settlement are visually striking during descent. This is a genuinely scenic island arrival. Notable sights include: Fernando de Noronha's volcanic peaks and ridgeline, surrounding deep Atlantic waters, small airstrip and settlement on the island's eastern plateau.
