CZM → ATL
Which side of the plane to sit from Cozumel International Airport (Cozumel) to Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (Atlanta)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Yucatan coastline upon departure and the stunning white-sand beaches of the Florida Panhandle during the descent into the United States.
Riviera Maya
Distant views of Cancun's turquoise waters and resorts during the initial climb out.
Emerald Coast
Stunning white sand beaches of Destin and Panama City as the flight crosses the US coast.
Pensacola Bay
Historic coastal areas and naval infrastructure of the Florida Panhandle.
Talladega National Forest
Rolling green hills and dense forests of eastern Alabama and Georgia.
Atlanta Skyline
Dramatic views of the Midtown and Downtown high-rises during the southern approach into ATL.
For morning flights, the sun is on this side, so bring sunglasses or lower the shade partially. For evening flights, the light on the Florida coast is golden and perfect for photos. Choose a seat ahead of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the coastline transition.
Cozumel Coast
Crystal clear views of the island's reefs and the San Miguel pier upon takeoff.
Gulf Shipping
Spotting large container ships and tankers in the central Gulf of Mexico.
Mobile Bay
The expansive Alabama coastline and the industrial port of Mobile.
Alabama River
Winding waterways carving through the deep green Southern landscape.
West Atlanta
Aerial views of the sprawling suburban landscape and Six Flags Over Georgia.
This side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side, reducing window glare. Keep an eye out for the distinct change in water color from the deep blue Gulf to the murky coastal estuaries as you approach the US mainland.
