EWR → SAV
Which side of the plane to sit from Newark Liberty International Airport (Newark) to Savannah Hilton Head International Airport (Savannah)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a front-row seat to the stunning Atlantic coastline, including the iconic Jersey Shore, the thin ribbons of the Outer Banks, and the historic harbor of Charleston before the final approach into Savannah.
Manhattan Skyline
Breathtaking views of the New York City skyline and the Statue of Liberty shortly after departure from EWR.
Jersey Shore
Continuous views of the New Jersey coastline, including the Atlantic City boardwalk and various seaside resorts.
The Outer Banks
The unique, narrow barrier islands of North Carolina, featuring Cape Hatteras and historic lighthouses.
Charleston Harbor
Clear views of the South Carolina coast, including Fort Sumter and the Ravenel Bridge during the descent.
Sit on the left side for morning flights to witness the sun rising over the Atlantic Ocean. This side is significantly better for viewing the New York City skyline if the plane takes off towards the south. Keep an eye out for the distinct transition from deep blue ocean to the emerald coastal waters of the Carolinas.
Philadelphia Vista
Distant views of the Philadelphia metropolitan area and the winding Delaware River.
Chesapeake Bay
Aerial perspective of the vast Chesapeake Bay and the intricate network of inlets in Maryland and Virginia.
Great Dismal Swamp
A massive, dark-green expanse of marshland and forest straddling the Virginia and North Carolina border.
Southern Pine Forests
The dense, lush pine forests and winding river systems typical of the Southern coastal plain.
Choose the right side for late afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the inland landscape. This side provides a better view of the varied topography of the coastal plain and the urban corridor of the Mid-Atlantic. In winter, look for the sharp contrast between frozen inland ponds and the flowing rivers.
