ATL → BNA
Which side of the plane to sit from Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (Atlanta) to Nashville International Airport (Nashville)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior for capturing the sprawling Atlanta metro area during takeoff and typically provides a clear view of the Nashville skyline and Nissan Stadium during the final descent into BNA.

Atlanta Suburbs
Expansive views of the Buckhead district and the dense tree canopy of the 'City in a Forest' right after takeoff.
Lake Allatoona
A prominent blue reservoir surrounded by Red Top Mountain State Park in the foothills of North Georgia.
Kennesaw Mountain
A distinctive peak and historic Civil War battlefield visible shortly after leaving the ATL terminal area.
Tims Ford Lake
The beautifully indented shoreline of this Tennessee reservoir located south of the Highland Rim region.
Downtown Nashville
Unmatched views of the AT&T 'Batman' Building and the Cumberland River on the standard northern approach.
Sit forward of the wing for the best views. On evening flights, this side catches the sunset over the Tennessee hills. If the flight lands towards the north (Runway 2L/2R), you will have a perfect view of the Broadway neon lights.

Vast stretches of green woodland covering the Appalachian foothills as you cross the Georgia-Tennessee border.
Lookout Mountain
The long, narrow ridge extending from Alabama through Georgia toward Chattanooga, visible in the distance.
