Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled view of the Bahamian archipelago, featuring some of the most vibrant turquoise waters and intricate sandbar patterns in the world.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏝️

The Exuma Cays

Breathtaking views of the 365-island chain in the Bahamas, known for its sapphire blue water and white sandbars.

🌊

The Glass Window

The striking visual contrast where the dark Atlantic Ocean meets the light turquoise waters of Eleuthera.

⚓

Charleston Harbor

Aerial view of historic Fort Sumter and the distinctive Ravenel Bridge as the plane enters South Carolina airspace.

🌳

Carolina Piedmont

Rolling hills and dense canopy of the deciduous forests that characterize the landscape of the American South.

The Bahamas are the star of this route; sit on the right and aim for a morning or midday flight to have the sun overhead, which makes the reef colors pop. If flying in winter, the right side also avoids the direct glare of the afternoon sun.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🇨🇼

Willemstad Coast

Aerial view of Curacao's rugged northern coastline and the colorful architecture of the capital during initial climb.

🇨🇺

Central Cuba

Overhead views of the lush agricultural landscapes and rolling hills of the Camagüey province.

🏙️

Florida Skyline

Distant views of the Miami and Fort Lauderdale skylines if the flight path follows the Atlantic coast closely.

🚤

Lake Wylie

A clear view of the sprawling lake and its many finger-like coves just before touchdown at CLT.

Choose this side for late afternoon flights to enjoy a beautiful sunset over the Gulf Stream. It is also the better side for spotting the urban sprawl of the US East Coast as you transition from the ocean to land over South Carolina.
