The intricate river systems and wetlands of the Gran Chaco and the fringes of the Pantanal.
Amazon Rainforest
Hours of flight over the dense, deep green canopy of the Amazon basin in Brazil and Colombia.
Central American Coast
Aerial views of the Panamanian and Costa Rican coastlines as you transition to the Caribbean.
Cozumel Island
Breathtaking views of the turquoise reefs and the island of Cozumel during the final descent into CUN.
Book a seat in front of the wing for unobstructed views of the Yucatan coastline. For morning departures, the sun will be on the right, making the left side perfect for glare-free photography. Keep an eye out about 20 minutes before landing for the brilliant transition from deep ocean blue to the bright turquoise of the Caribbean shallows.

Río de la Plata
A grand view of the massive estuary separating Argentina and Uruguay shortly after takeoff.
Amazonian Rivers
Excellent views of the winding, silty 'coffee-colored' rivers snaking through the green jungle.
Greater Antilles
Distant views of the Caribbean islands, including Jamaica and the western tip of Cuba.
Cancun Hotel Zone
The iconic '7' shaped sandbar and luxury resorts of Cancun if the approach pattern circles from the north.
The right side is ideal for catching the sunrise over the Atlantic/Amazon if you are on an overnight flight. During the day, expect higher glare. On arrival, if the wind requires a northern approach, you will have a front-row seat to the white sands of the Hotel Zone, but this is dependent on local air traffic control patterns.
