Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is preferred for its spectacular views of the Caribbean archipelagos and the quintessential aerial panorama of the Miami coastline and skyline during the approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏞️

Araguaia River

Vast river systems and sandy river beaches visible in central Brazil.

🏝️

Antillean Chain

Potential sightings of the mountain ranges in Hispaniola or the shores of Cuba.

🇧🇸

The Bahamas

Brilliant white sands and shallow turquoise waters of the Bahamian cays.

🏙️

Miami Skyline

A world-class view of South Beach, the Port of Miami, and the downtown skyscrapers.

Best for avoiding direct sun glare on afternoon flights heading north. On arrival, this side usually offers the iconic view of the Miami Beach coastline and the Atlantic Ocean. Try to spot the large cargo ships entering the port.

Left Side Highlights
8.1
🌳

Amazon Basin

Cross the heart of the world's largest rainforest with views of massive meandering rivers.

🌊

Caribbean Transition

Watch the deep Atlantic blues shift to vibrant turquoise over the Caribbean shelf.

🐊

The Everglades

Aerial views of the unique Florida wetlands and conservation areas during descent.

🛰️

Central Plateau

The red earth and unique landscape of the Brazilian Cerrado shortly after takeoff.

Ideal for sunset views on afternoon departures. Keep a lookout for the dense Amazonian cloud forests in the first half of the journey. During descent, look for the distinct grid patterns of the Florida Everglades.
