BOG β†’ ADZ

Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a more diverse geographic display, featuring the dramatic transition from the Andean peaks to the Darien jungle and the Caribbean coast, culminating in a prime view of the coral reef system.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
⛰️

Western Cordillera

The rugged, green-cloaked ridges of the Colombian Andes shortly after takeoff.

πŸ›Ά

Gulf of UrabΓ‘

The unique point where the thick Darien jungle meets the Caribbean Sea.

🌴

San Blas Islands

Distant views of the Panamanian archipelago dotting the horizon with white sand.

🌊

Barrier Reefs

Extensive underwater coral formations visible through the crystal-clear Caribbean waters.

🏊

Sea of Seven Colors

The world-famous turquoise and blue gradients surrounding San Andres Island on final approach.

Book a window seat on the left for flights between 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM to have the sun behind you, making the sea colors pop. This side is also better for viewing the coastal geography of northwestern Colombia before heading out over the open ocean.

Right Side Highlights
7.9
🌫️

Magdalena Valley

The vast, tropical lowlands that serve as the agricultural heart of central Colombia.

πŸ”οΈ

Central Cordillera

Distant, hazy views of snow-capped volcanic peaks if the sky is clear.

🏝️

Johnny Cay

The iconic, palm-covered islet situated just off the coast of the main island.

βš“

North End District

The bustling urban center and harbor of San Andres visible just before touchdown.

πŸ›₯️

Rose Cay

Shallow sandbars and snorkeling spots surrounded by neon-bright water.

The right side is ideal for travelers who want an up-close look at the San Andres town center and Johnny Cay during the landing sequence. If your flight departs Bogota to the north, keep an eye out for the expansive flower greenhouses on the Sabana plateau.
