Recommendation
If you are looking for a balance between comfort and cost, I recommend flying from Maraba to Itamaraju as it significantly reduces travel time compared to the bus option and allows you to arrive refreshed. However, if budget constraints are a priority and you enjoy scenic road trips, the bus option is a suitable alternative.
