Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the most iconic part of the journey: the final approach into Toronto, providing a panoramic view of the CN Tower and the city skyline across Lake Ontario.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Massachusetts North Shore

Views of Salem, Gloucester, and the rugged Atlantic coastline shortly after departure.

⛰️

Adirondack Mountains

The distant, rugged peaks of Northern New York visible to the north while cruising over the Mohawk Valley.

💧

Lake Ontario Crossing

A vast expanse of deep blue water as the aircraft crosses from New York state into Canadian airspace.

🗼

Toronto Skyline

An unbeatable view of the CN Tower and downtown financial district when landing on YYZ's westerly runways.

The right side is essential for the 'money shot' of Toronto. Choose a window seat to capture the skyline as the plane descends over the lake. For evening flights, you may witness spectacular sunsets reflecting off the water and the city's glass skyscrapers.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Boston Skyline

Aerial views of the Back Bay, Charles River, and Fenway Park immediately after takeoff from Logan Airport.

🏔️

The Berkshires

Rolling green hills and dense forests of western Massachusetts during the initial climb to cruising altitude.

🍇

Finger Lakes

The southern tips of these glacial lakes in Upstate New York are often visible during the mid-flight segment.

🏭

Rochester & Buffalo

Industrial landscapes and urban centers of Western New York visible before the flight turns toward the lake.

Sit toward the back of the cabin to keep the wing from obstructing views of the Finger Lakes. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, providing excellent lighting for photos of the Massachusetts terrain.
