Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the Atlantic coastline, the Cape Cod peninsula, and the vast Chesapeake Bay estuary.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Cape Cod

Observe the unique hook-shaped peninsula and the Atlantic shoreline during the initial climb from Logan.

🏙️

Long Island

View the dense coastal communities and the long stretches of white sand beaches along the southern shore.

🌊

Chesapeake Bay

Marvel at the massive Bay Bridge and the complex network of tidal wetlands and rivers feeding the estuary.

🛳️

Norfolk Naval Base

Spot the world's largest naval station with aircraft carriers often docked in the harbor near the bay entrance.

Sit in the front half of the cabin for unobstructed views of the coast. Morning flights are spectacular as the sun rises over the Atlantic Ocean, highlighting the shoreline features.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Manhattan

Look for the dense skyscraper clusters of Midtown and Lower Manhattan, often visible from a high-altitude perspective.

🔔

Philadelphia

Identify the Center City skyline and the winding path of the Schuylkill and Delaware Rivers.

🏛️

Washington D.C.

Spot the National Mall, the Capitol building, and the Pentagon if the flight path tracks slightly inland.

⛰️

Blue Ridge Mountains

See the rolling peaks of the Appalachian range as the plane begins its southern descent into Charlotte.

Afternoon flights are ideal on this side to avoid the harsh morning sun. Keep a close watch roughly 45-60 minutes into the flight for the D.C. landmarks.
