Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior perspective of the Magdalena River valley and the intricate wetland systems of the Sucre region during the descent into Corozal.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌇

Bogota Cityscape

Panoramic views of the capital city's sprawling urban density during the initial ascent.

⛰️

Cordillera Oriental

Close-up views of the rugged peaks and high-altitude paramos of the eastern Andean range.

💧

Magdalena River

The massive, winding meanders of Colombia's principal artery as it flows toward the sea.

🌿

Depresión Momposina

Expansive wetlands, lagoons, and water networks near the Caribbean coast visible during descent.

🌾

Sucre Savannas

The transition into the golden cattle-ranching heartlands characteristic of northern Colombia.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to keep the sun behind you. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing to capture the intricate 'Depresión Momposina' wetlands, which are most vibrant during the wet season between May and November. Request a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion for photos of the river.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🚜

Bogota Savanna

Vast agricultural plains surrounding El Dorado during the initial climb out of the city.

🏔️

Central Cordillera

Distant views of the central Andean volcanic chain and rugged mountain ridges to the west.

🛶

Magdalena Valley

Aerial views of the fertile valley floor nestled between the major mountain ranges.

🌳

Serranía de las Quinchas

Dense tropical forests and biodiversity hotspots covering the steep mountain slopes.

🏘️

Sincelejo Approach

Glimpse the urban sprawl of the department capital as the aircraft begins its final descent.

Sit on the left for morning flights to minimize glare. Watch for the snow-capped peaks of the Central Cordillera on exceptionally clear days during the first half of the flight. As the plane descends into the Caribbean lowlands, the changing vegetation from highland paramo to tropical savanna is more apparent on this side.
