Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for the Caribbean reefs at takeoff, the US Eastern Seaboard, and the spectacular approach over downtown Montreal.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
๐Ÿ๏ธ

Jardines del Rey

Aerial perspective of the white sand keys and vibrant coral reefs surrounding Cayo Coco immediately after takeoff.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Eastern Seaboard

Breathtaking views of the Atlantic coastline and the intricate barrier islands of the Carolinas.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

Adirondack Mountains

Rugged, forested peaks of upstate New York as the flight transitions into Canadian airspace.

๐ŸŒŠ

Lake Champlain

The historic, narrow waterway marking the scenic border between New York and Vermont.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Downtown Montreal

A high-probability view of Mount Royal, the Olympic Stadium, and city skyscrapers during the final descent.

Best for sunset views on evening flights as the sun will be on the port side. For the best photos of Cayo Coco's turquoise waters, look out immediately after departure. On landing at YUL, the left side frequently faces the city center depending on the runway in use.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
๐ŸŒŠ

The Gulf Stream

Observe the deep indigo waters of the Atlantic current contrasting with the lighter coastal shallows.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Abaco Islands

Distant views of the northernmost islands of the Bahamas archipelago shortly after leaving Cuba.

โš“

Outer Banks

The thin, iconic strip of land making up North Carolina's unique barrier island system.

๐Ÿ—ฝ

New York Bight

Possible views of Long Island and the busy shipping lanes entering New York Harbor from the east.

๐Ÿ›ถ

St. Lawrence Valley

The fertile agricultural plains and rolling hills of the Montรฉrรฉgie region east of the island of Montreal.

Ideal for sunrise photography on morning departures. This side avoids the harsh glare of the sun during afternoon flights heading north. Watch for the distinct 'hook' shape of the Outer Banks early in the cruise phase.
