<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">The goal of this paper is to find a combination of conical trajectories, using gravitational assisted maneuvers (swing-by), which perform the transfer from a nearby of the departure planet (Earth) to the vicinity of the arrival planet (Jupiter), making a closest approaches with Mars (flyby) to reduce the fuel consumption for the journey. A detailed description of the mission from Earth— Mars—Jupiter, that used this technique is presented. The table of flyby dates, altitudes of closest approaches is also included. A methodology known as the Patched Conics was used, where the trajectory is divided into three parts:<list list-type="order"><list-item>Departure phase, inside of the sphere of influence of the departure planet,</list-item><list-item>Heliocentric phase, during the journey between the planets,</list-item><list-item>Arrival phase, inside the sphere of influence of the arrival planet.</list-item></list></abstract>
