An unbeatable view of the Casa Rosada, Obelisco, and the dense urban grid immediately after takeoff.
The Humid Pampas
Vast, fertile green plains that make up the agricultural heartland of Argentina, dotted with estancias.
Patagonian Steppe
A stark landscape shift into arid, brown plateaus and canyons as the aircraft heads further south.
Comodoro Oil Fields
The landscape becomes dotted with thousands of pumpjacks, highlighting the region's status as Argentina's oil capital.
Cerro Chenque
The iconic flat-topped hill that looms over the city of Comodoro Rivadavia, seen during the final landing bank.
Sit on the right for the best afternoon lighting, which emphasizes the textures of the Patagonian desert. This side is essential for seeing the urban scale of Buenos Aires on departure. During the descent, look for the 'mesetas'—the characteristic step-like plateaus that define the southern landscape. At night, the oil fields provide a unique constellation of lights on the ground.
