Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Buenos Aires Skyline

Aerial panorama of downtown, Puerto Madero, and the iconic Obelisco immediately after departure from AEP.

🌿

Paraná Delta

The stunning labyrinth of sediment-rich islands and narrow channels where the river meets the Rio de la Plata.

💧

Iberá Wetlands

Occasional views of the vast marshes and lagoons in the Corrientes province, home to diverse wildlife.

🏗️

Port of Rosario

A high-altitude view of the massive grain terminals and industrial infrastructure of Argentina's major river port.

🏘️

Asunción Approach

Direct views of the Paraguayan capital and the surrounding urban sprawl during the final approach.

Request a window seat on the left for the best morning light. This side is essential for the 'Buenos Aires city tour' during takeoff. Watch for the dramatic color change where the brown sediment of the river hits the blue-grey estuary waters.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Rio de la Plata

The incredible scale of the world's widest estuary, appearing like a brown ocean to the east.

🇺🇾

Uruguay Border

Distant views of the Uruguayan coastline and the confluence where the Uruguay River flows south.

🌾

Mesopotamian Plains

The fertile, rolling agricultural landscapes of Entre Ríos, characterized by a grid of farms and ranches.

⚡

Yacyretá Dam

Depending on the flight corridor, the massive hydroelectric project on the border may be visible.

🌳

Paraguayan Chaco

The transition into the dense, subtropical forests and wetlands of eastern Paraguay as the plane descends.

Choose the right side for afternoon flights to keep the sun behind you and avoid harsh glare. It offers a broader view of the vast water systems between the two countries. Keep an eye out for the white wakes of river barges transporting goods north.
