Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers a superior perspective of the San Andres barrier reef during takeoff and a more dramatic view of the Bogota skyline and the Eastern Hills during the approach into El Dorado.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🐚

Sea of Seven Colors

Unbeatable views of the coral formations and varying shades of blue along the eastern coast of San Andres.

🚢

Gulf of Uraba

The meeting point of the Caribbean Sea and the Colombian mainland, often showing distinct sediment plumes.

⛰️

Central Cordillera

High-altitude views of the rugged Andean peaks as the flight moves from the coast toward the interior.

🏙️

Bogota Cityscape

A panoramic view of the massive urban sprawl and the prominent Monserrate and Guadalupe hills on final approach.

The right side is typically best for the 'classic' San Andres departure view since Runway 06 is most frequently used. For the best experience, book a window seat away from the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the mountains. Afternoon flights may experience more cloud cover over the Andes, so early morning departures are highly recommended for clear visibility of the terrain.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏖️

Johnny Cay

A stunning aerial view of the white-sand islet and its surrounding turquoise lagoon immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Caribbean Transition

Watch the ocean color shift from brilliant aquamarine to deep indigo as the shelf drops off.

🛶

Sinu River Meanders

The winding brown waters of the Sinu River creating intricate patterns in the northern Colombian plains.

🌄

Sabana de Bogota

The vast, high-altitude plateau appearing with its patchwork of greenhouses and dairy farms during descent.

Choose the left side if the flight departs towards the southwest (Runway 24), as you will get a full view of the island's length. For the arrival in Bogota, this side is often better for seeing the industrial zones and the western edge of the savanna. Morning flights provide excellent backlighting for the Andean foothills.
