DOM โ†’ BGI

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a spectacular panoramic view of the island chain as the flight heads south, showcasing the lush volcanic landscapes of Martinique and the iconic Pitons of St. Lucia.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
๐ŸŒ‹

Mont Pelรฉe

The towering active volcano at the northern end of Martinique, often shrouded in dramatic clouds.

๐Ÿ˜๏ธ

Fort-de-France

A clear view of the bustling capital of Martinique and its expansive natural harbor.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

The Pitons

The world-famous twin volcanic plugs (Gros Piton and Petit Piton) rising sharply from the sea in St. Lucia.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Barbados Platinum Coast

The western coastline of Barbados with its high-end resorts and turquoise reefs during the final descent.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

St. Vincent Peaks

Distant views of the northern mountains of St. Vincent depending on the specific air corridor.

Sit on the left (Port side) to follow the archipelago's spine. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the islands' green slopes without lens flare. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff from DOM as Martinique appears very quickly.

Right Side Highlights
5.5
๐ŸŒŠ

Open Caribbean Sea

Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Caribbean horizon and passing maritime traffic.

๐ŸŒ…

Sunset Horizon

Perfect positioning for spectacular tropical sunsets if flying on late afternoon segments.

๐Ÿšข

Cruise Ship Lanes

Frequent sightings of large cruise liners traveling the deep water routes between islands.

The right side is best for late afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the water. It offers a much quieter, less busy view, which is great for those who prefer the vastness of the ocean over land topography. Watch for the southern tip of Barbados upon arrival.
