Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers the most dramatic scenery, featuring the rugged Norwegian coast, potential views of Greenland's massive ice fields, and a superior perspective of the U.S. East Coast cities during the southward descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Norwegian Fjords

Dramatic mountain ranges and deep-blue inlets visible as the plane crosses over Norway.

🧊

Greenland Ice Cap

If the Great Circle route is northerly, you will see massive glaciers and icebergs in the Labrador Sea.

🇨🇦

Newfoundland Coast

The rugged, rocky eastern edge of Canada featuring jagged cliffs and remote bays.

🗽

NYC & Boston

Distant views of the iconic Manhattan skyline and the Boston metropolitan area.

🚀

Kennedy Space Center

Spot the launch pads and the massive Vehicle Assembly Building near Cape Canaveral.

This is the 'scenery side.' To see Greenland, check the flight path on the seatback screen; a more northern track significantly increases your chances. During the U.S. East Coast transit, stay alert for the distinct grid patterns of major cities and the sandy beaches of Florida.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏝️

Stockholm Archipelago

A stunning view of thousands of islands scattered across the Baltic Sea immediately after takeoff.

🚢

North Sea Activity

Spotting cargo ships and offshore wind farms as the flight leaves the European mainland.

🏖️

Carolina Barrier Islands

Aerial views of the Outer Banks and the intricate marshlands of the Southern U.S. coast.

🐊

The Everglades

Vast stretches of Florida's famous wetlands as the plane maneuvers for its final approach.

🏙️

Miami Skyline

Depending on the approach pattern, a distant view of the gleaming towers of downtown Miami.

The left side is preferable for avoiding direct sunlight on westbound flights, as the sun remains to the south. It offers the best views of the Florida coastline's lagoons and the Everglades during the final 30 minutes of the flight.
