Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is significantly more scenic during the final 45 minutes of the flight, offering views of the Caribbean's Leeward Islands, including the volcanic peaks of Montserrat and the sister islands of St. Kitts and Nevis.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
πŸ–οΈ

Lowcountry Marshes

Views of the South Carolina coast, including the intricate river systems and marshes near Myrtle Beach.

🏝️

Virgin Islands Horizon

On clear days, the distant silhouettes of the US and British Virgin Islands may be visible to the west.

🏝️

St. Kitts and Nevis

Dramatic views of the iconic volcanic peaks of Mount Liamuiga and Nevis Peak as you approach Antigua.

πŸŒ‹

Montserrat Volcano

Visible to the southwest during descent, you can often see the steam or scars from the Soufrière Hills Volcano.

🚀

Dickenson Bay

Stunning views of the turquoise waters and white sand beaches of Antigua's northwestern shore during the landing pattern.

This is the preferred side for avoiding the harsh morning sun and capturing the most island views. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing to capture the neighboring islands. If the flight arrives late in the afternoon, this side offers a spectacular sunset over the Caribbean Sea.

πŸ™οΈ

Charlotte Skyline

Upon departure, catch views of the Queen City's suburban sprawl and the greenery of the Piedmont region.

πŸ–οΈ

Cape Fear Coastline

As the plane crosses into the Atlantic, look for the jagged edges of the North Carolina coast and the Frying Pan Shoals.

β˜€οΈ

Atlantic Sunrise

On early morning departures, this side provides a front-row seat to the sun rising over the open ocean horizon.

🌊

The Deep Atlantic

View the transition of water colors as the flight crosses the deep blue waters of the Gulf Stream.

πŸ›¬

Prickly Pear Island

During the final descent into ANU, look for the tiny, uninhabited islets and reefs off Antigua's northern coast.

Choose this side if you are on a morning flight and want to witness the sunrise, but be prepared for heavy sun glare. This side is mostly open ocean for the middle 3 hours of the flight. Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the North Carolina coastline isn't obstructed during the initial ascent.
