Which side of the plane to sit from Las Brujas Airport (Corozal) to El Dorado International Airport (Bogota)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side typically offers more dramatic views of the Central Cordillera's volcanic peaks and the sprawling urban landscape of Bogota during the final approach.
Caribbean Savannahs
Extensive cattle ranches and agricultural plains surrounding Corozal and Sincelejo right after departure.
Nevado del Ruiz
On clear days, the majestic snow-capped peaks of the Los Nevados National Park are visible to the west.
Bogotá Metropolitan Area
A spectacular view of the dense urban sprawl of the capital as the plane aligns with El Dorado's runways.
Central Cordillera
The rugged, green slopes of the central Andean range provide a dramatic backdrop mid-flight.
Book a window seat on the right for the best chance to see the volcanic peaks. Early morning flights are highly recommended as clouds often obscure the mountains by midday. During the rainy season (April-May and October-November), visibility is best on the first flights of the day.
Magdalena River Valley
Witness the winding path of Colombia's principal river as it snakes through the tropical valley floor.
Serranía de San Lucas
View the dense, mountainous tropical forests of this isolated range in the Bolivar department.
Zipaquirá Highlands
As the plane descends, look for the rugged terrain surrounding the famous salt mining region north of the capital.
Sabana de Bogotá
The vast, high-altitude plateau becomes visible, showing a patchwork of greenhouses and dairy farms.
Choose the left side for morning flights to see the early light hitting the Eastern Cordillera. This side is also excellent for seeing the river systems of the Mojana region shortly after takeoff.
