Sierra de Ancasti
Immediately after takeoff, witness the rugged eastern slopes of the Catamarca mountains as the plane climbs to cruising altitude.
Paraná River Delta
A spectacular network of sediment-rich islands and narrow channels where the Paraná River meets the Rio de la Plata.
Buenos Aires Skyline
On final descent, enjoy an unobstructed view of the 'Queen of the Plata' including the iconic skyscrapers of Puerto Madero.
El Monumental
The plane often flies directly past River Plate's stadium, providing a bird's-eye view of Argentina's largest sports venue.
Book an 'A' or 'B' seat for the best views. Morning flights (7 AM - 10 AM) are ideal as the sun rises on this side, illuminating the Delta's waterways. During the descent, keep your camera ready for the transition from the green islands to the dense urban sprawl of the city.

Sierras de Córdoba
To the west, you can often spot the distant peaks of the Córdoba mountain range shortly after leaving Catamarca airspace.
Pampas Agricultural Grid
Perfectly geometric crop fields stretching to the horizon, showcasing Argentina's massive agricultural industry.
Rio de la Plata
As the plane turns for the final approach, you will see the brown, silt-laden waters of the widest river in the world.
Choose the right side for late afternoon or sunset flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun while enjoying the golden hour over the Pampas. This side is also excellent for seeing the massive cargo ships anchored in the Rio de la Plata waiting to enter the Port of Buenos Aires.
