Search flights from AEP to USH
The Pampas
Gaze over the vast, fertile agricultural heartland of Argentina during the initial cruise phase.
Southern Andes
Stunning views of the snow-capped mountain range as it tapers toward the southern tip of the continent.
Patagonian Ice Field
Distant views of massive glaciers and high-altitude ice sheets near the Chilean border.
Mount Olivia
The most prominent and iconic peak overlooking Ushuaia, visible during the final approach.
Tierra del Fuego National Park
Dense subantarctic forests and hidden glacial lakes appearing just before touchdown.
The right side is the 'mountain side.' For the most dramatic experience, choose a window seat to witness the plane maneuvering through narrow mountain passes during the descent into Ushuaia. Afternoon flights provide excellent golden-hour lighting on the peaks.

Buenos Aires Skyline
Unparalleled views of the metropolitan area and the Rio de la Plata immediately after takeoff.
Península Valdés
On clear days, see the unique mushroom-shaped landform famous for whale breeding.
Isla de los Estados
Remote and rugged island at the eastern tip of Tierra del Fuego, often visible during the descent.
Beagle Channel Entrance
Views of the legendary waterway that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
Martillo Island
A potential glimpse of the penguin colonies as the plane aligns with the Ushuaia runway.
Sit on the left for the best morning light on the Atlantic coast. This side is ideal for spotting the unique geography of the Patagonian shoreline and the expansive Beagle Channel upon approach. Try to get a seat behind the wing to avoid obstructing the coastal curvature.
