Long Island Sound
The sparkling expanse of the Sound with visible sailboats and the sandy northern shores of Long Island.
Narragansett Bay
Spot the Claiborne Pell Newport Bridge and the intricate coastline of Rhode Island.
Boston Harbor Islands
A cluster of historic islands, including the iconic Boston Light, visible during the final approach.
Downtown Boston
Extremely close views of the Custom House Tower and the Financial District if landing on Runway 4R.
The right side is the clear winner. For the best Manhattan views, look out immediately after the initial climb. For Boston, keep your eyes peeled during the last 5 minutes of the flight. Choose an afternoon flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the coastal scenery without glare.
