Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers an unparalleled view of the snow-capped Andean volcanoes immediately after takeoff from Armenia, followed by a stunning aerial tour of the Caribbean coast and the iconic Miami skyline during the descent into Fort Lauderdale.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
πŸŒ‹

Nevado del Ruiz

Breathtaking views of the active, snow-capped volcano that dominates the Central Cordillera landscape.

🚒

Cartagena Coast

Aerial perspective of the historic Walled City and the modern high-rises of the Bocagrande peninsula.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡Ί

Central Cuba

The flight path often crosses over central Cuba, offering views of inland mountains and rural agricultural patterns.

πŸ’Ž

Bahamian Cays

The striking contrast of deep sapphire ocean and neon turquoise shallows near the edge of the Bahama Bank.

πŸ™οΈ

Miami Skyline

Close-up views of the Downtown Miami skyscrapers, South Beach, and the Atlantic coastline during the final approach.

The right side is essential for viewing the Andean volcanoes during the first 15 minutes of flight. On arrival, ask for a window seat away from the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Florida Keys and the Gold Coast. Best for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh morning sun reflecting off the Caribbean Sea.

Left Side Highlights

⛰️

Western Andes

Deep green ridges and steep valleys of the Western Cordillera as the flight moves north from the Coffee Axis.

🌊

Gulf of UrabΓ‘

The dramatic meeting point of the Colombian mainland and the Caribbean Sea near the Darien Gap.

🏝️

Isle of Youth

A glimpse of Cuba's largest secondary island surrounded by shallow, vibrant turquoise waters.

🐊

The Everglades

Massive expanses of sawgrass marsh and wetland ecosystems as the aircraft crosses into South Florida.

Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you for better photography. Keep an eye out for the remote coastlines of ChocΓ³ shortly after reaching cruising altitude. This side is typically better for viewing the sunset if flying late in the afternoon.
