Which side of the plane to sit from Brigadier Antonio Parodi Airport (Esquel) to General E. Mosconi Airport (Comodoro Rivadavia)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a dramatic transition from the snow-capped Andes to the deep blue waters of the Patagonian lakes Musters and Colhué Huapi, culminating in a coastal approach over the iconic Cerro Chenque.

Southern Andes
Sweeping views of the snow-dusted peaks stretching toward the southern horizon shortly after takeoff.
Lake Musters
The strikingly deep blue waters of this massive endorheic lake, a primary source of water for the region.
Lake Colhué Huapi
The shallower, siltier neighbor to Lake Musters, often appearing in contrasting shades of green or tan.
Oil Fields
Visible nodding donkey pumps and industrial infrastructure dotting the desert as you approach the 'Oil Capital'.
Cerro Chenque
The landmark cliff that dominates the skyline of Comodoro Rivadavia, visible during the final descent.
This is the 'must-see' side for this route. Request a window seat on the right to see the two Great Lakes (Musters and Colhué Huapi), which are the most prominent landmarks in central Patagonia. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for the lakes and the coastal cliffs.

Esquel Valley
Dramatic views of the town and surrounding peaks of the pre-cordillera during the initial climb.
Patagonian Steppe
The vast, golden-brown expanse of the high plateau showing complex geological erosion patterns.
Pampa del Castillo
A high-altitude plateau area known for its unique vegetation and stark desert beauty.
San Jorge Gulf
The first glimpse of the Atlantic Ocean's deep blue waters as the plane nears the coast.
Sit in front of the wing for the best view of the Andes receding behind the plane. This side is better during morning flights to avoid the harsh Southern Sun glare over the desert plateau.
