BNA → TTN
Which side of the plane to sit from Nashville International Airport (Nashville) to Trenton Mercer Airport (Trenton)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the rugged Appalachian Plateau and a better perspective of the Susquehanna River and Pennsylvania's scenic farmland during the descent.
Nashville Skyline
Catch a glimpse of the 'Batman Building' and the Cumberland River immediately after takeoff from BNA.
Appalachian Plateau
Fly over the dense forests and deep gorges of the West Virginia wilderness and the Monongahela National Forest.
Susquehanna River
A wide, majestic crossing of one of the oldest existing mountain river systems in the world as you enter Pennsylvania.
Lancaster Farmlands
Observe the distinctive geometric patterns of the Pennsylvania Dutch Country's meticulously maintained agricultural fields.
TTN Final Approach
A clear view of the suburban landscapes of Bucks County and the northern reaches of the Delaware Valley.
For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. On morning flights, the left side is shaded, providing better conditions for photography of the West Virginia mountains and the Susquehanna River. In autumn, this side offers a spectacular display of changing leaf colors across the Appalachian ridges.
Shenandoah Valley
Look south to see the long, linear ridges of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah National Park.
Potomac River
The winding silver thread of the Potomac River marks the transition between the Appalachian highlands and the coastal plain.
Philadelphia Skyline
On the descent into TTN, the skyscrapers of Center City Philadelphia are often visible in the distance to the southeast.
Delaware River
Follow the course of the river that divides Pennsylvania and New Jersey during the final stages of flight.
Trenton Landmarks
Views of the New Jersey State House and the historic 'Trenton Makes The World Takes' bridge upon arrival.
The right side is excellent for evening flights as the setting sun illuminates the Philadelphia skyline during the approach. Be aware that southern flight paths may experience significant glare during midday. Keep an eye out for the distinctive urban sprawl of the I-95 corridor as you transition from the rural mountains to the Northeast Megalopolis.
