BHI → MDQ
Which side of the plane to sit from Comandante Espora Airport (Bahia Blanca) to Ástor Piazzola International Airport (Mar Del Plata)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers spectacular views of the Argentine coastline, featuring the unique transition from the Bahia Blanca estuary to the sandy beaches of Monte Hermoso and the dramatic urban skyline of Mar del Plata.
Puerto Belgrano
The largest naval base in Argentina, visible immediately after departure from Bahia Blanca.
Monte Hermoso
A popular resort town famous for its east-west coastline and the towering Recalada Light.
Atlantic Coastline
Continuous views of the breaking surf and sand dunes that line the journey toward the Atlantic.
Mar del Plata Port
Aerial view of the iconic fishing fleet and the massive breakwaters protecting the harbor.
MDQ Skyline
A stunning perspective of the high-rise buildings and rocky cliffs of the 'Pearl of the Atlantic' upon arrival.
The right side is unbeatable for coastal enthusiasts. Try to book an afternoon flight for warm, golden light reflecting off the Atlantic. Keep your camera ready during descent as the aircraft often banks over the ocean, providing a panoramic view of the Bristol Beach area and the Torreon del Monje.
Pampa Humeda
Extensive agricultural landscapes showcasing the fertile plains of the Buenos Aires province.
Sierra de la Ventana
On clear days shortly after takeoff, the distant peaks of this ancient mountain range are visible to the north.
Laguna de los Padres
A beautiful freshwater lagoon located just west of Mar del Plata during the final approach.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. Look for the geometric patterns of the vast estancias and crop circles that define the Argentine agricultural heartland.
