Which side of the plane to sit from Simón Bolívar International Airport (Caracas) to Ministro Pistarini International Airport (Buenos Aires)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the iconic approach into Buenos Aires, featuring the vast Río de la Plata and the city's coastal skyline during descent.
Orinoco Delta
The intricate network of river channels meeting the Atlantic shortly after departure.
Amazon Canopy
An endless expanse of deep green rainforest stretching to the horizon for several hours.
Amazon River
The massive scale of the world's largest river as you cross the equator near Manaus.
Buenos Aires Waterfront
Stunning aerial views of Puerto Madero and the city center during the final approach.
Río de la Plata
The world's widest estuary, appearing like a brown sea just before landing at Ezeiza.
For morning flights, expect direct sunlight on this side; use the window shade until you reach the Amazon. The descent is the highlight, as the plane often banks over the river, providing a perfect panoramic view of the Argentine capital.
Venezuelan Llanos
Expansive tropical grasslands and agricultural patterns early in the flight path.
Pantanal Wetlands
Reflective water patches and unique biodiversity zones of the world's largest wetland.
Distant Andes
The faint silhouette of the continental mountain range visible to the far west on clear days.
Argentine Pampas
The geometric beauty of Argentina's fertile agricultural heartland during the late cruise phase.
Ezeiza Forests
The lush green surroundings of the airport district during the final moments of flight.
Choose the right side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh western sun. This side provides a better perspective of the remote interior regions of the continent and the transition from the Amazon basin into the temperate southern plains.
