ATL → BON
Which side of the plane to sit from Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (Atlanta) to Flamingo International Airport (Kralendijk)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior viewing experience, particularly during the descent into Bonaire where the famous pink salt pans and the southern coastline are prominently visible.
Orlando Resorts
Visuals of the sprawling theme park complexes and Lake Okeechobee in Central Florida.
The Everglades
The unique 'River of Grass' ecosystem spanning the southern tip of the Florida peninsula.
Caribbean Horizons
Vistas of the northern coast of Cuba and the mountainous silhouettes of Hispaniola in the distance.
Pekelmeer Salt Flats
Iconic bright pink evaporation ponds and massive white salt pyramids just before touchdown at BON.
The right side is essential for the 'Bonaire approach.' As the plane banks toward Flamingo International Airport, you will get the best view of the Pekelmeer Flamingo Sanctuary and the vibrant salt works.
Kennedy Space Center
Clear views of the launch pads and the massive Vehicle Assembly Building along the Florida Space Coast.
Florida Gold Coast
The high-rise skyline of Miami and the turquoise waters of South Beach are visible during the coastal transit.
Exuma Cays
Stunning aerial patterns of sandbars and sapphire water channels throughout the Bahamian archipelago.
Bastian Reefs
Intricate coral formations and shallow reef systems as the flight crosses into the Caribbean Sea.
Choose the left side for morning departures to keep the sun behind the aircraft, ensuring better lighting for photography of the Bahamas. During arrival, this side looks toward the town of Kralendijk.
