FLL โ AXM
Which side of the plane to sit from Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport (Fort Lauderdale) to El Eden Airport (Armenia)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Florida Keys upon departure and provides the most dramatic perspective of the lush Coffee Triangle valleys and the Western Andes during the descent into Armenia.
Florida Keys
Exceptional views of the Overseas Highway and the emerald waters surrounding the Florida Keys shortly after takeoff.
Western Cuba
A clear view of the Cuban coastline and the rural landscapes of the Pinar del Rio region.
Gulf of Darien
The meeting point of Central and South America, featuring the dense jungles of the Darien Gap.
The Coffee Triangle
Breathtaking views of the emerald-green coffee plantations and rolling hills of Quindรญo during the descent into Armenia.
Western Cordillera
Dramatic ridges and deep valleys of the westernmost branch of the Colombian Andes.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. It provides the best perspective for the scenic descent into El Edรฉn Airport, where you can see the unique topography of the Eje Cafetero. Keep your camera ready for the final 15 minutes of the flight.
Miami Skyline
Aerial views of downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay immediately after departing south from FLL.
Bahamian Cays
Distant turquoise waters and the westernmost edges of the Bahamian archipelago during the initial cruise.
Sierra Maestra
The rugged mountain range of eastern Cuba as the flight path crosses the island toward the Caribbean.
Cordillera Central
Stunning views of the high peaks of the central Colombian Andes during the final leg of the journey.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Atlantic and for views of the high Andean peaks as you approach central Colombia. It is also the better side for seeing the Miami coastline during the climb out of South Florida.
