Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most scenic diversity, featuring the turquoise reefs of the Yucatan Peninsula and a spectacular perspective of the high Andes peaks during the descent into the Sabana de Bogota.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Dallas Metroplex

Aerial views of the Trinity River and the expanding suburban landscape of North Texas immediately after takeoff.

🏖️

Yucatan Peninsula

Vibrant turquoise waters and white sand beaches near Cancun and Cozumel as the flight crosses into the Caribbean.

🌊

Caribbean Reefs

Shallow water formations and coral reefs visible through the clear tropical waters of the Caribbean Sea.

⛰️

Eastern Cordillera

Dramatic, jagged peaks of the Colombian Andes that rise sharply to meet the high-altitude plateau of Bogota.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid harsh direct sunlight. This side is superior for spotting the Mexican coastline and offers the best angle for seeing the city of Bogota nestled against the mountains during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🚢

Texas Gulf Coast

The intricate waterways and industrial shipping lanes near Galveston and the Houston Ship Channel.

🌴

Central American Coast

Distal views of the lush, green coastlines of Nicaragua and Costa Rica across the Caribbean horizon.

🐍

Magdalena River

The massive, winding brown ribbon of Colombia's primary river snaking through the tropical valley floor.

🌋

Central Cordillera

Views of distant volcanic peaks and the vast cloud forests that carpet the central Colombian mountain range.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Pacific horizon as you cross Central America. It provides a better view of the Magdalena Valley, though the glare can be intense during the midday hours.
