FLLEWR

Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is superior for this northbound coastal route, offering a front-row seat to the Atlantic coastline, the Jersey Shore, and the iconic New York City skyline upon arrival at Newark.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏖️

Florida Gold Coast

Immediate views of the high-rise condos and turquoise waters of Hollywood and Pompano Beach.

🏝️

Outer Banks

The thin, sandy strip of North Carolina's barrier islands stretching into the Atlantic Ocean.

🌊

Chesapeake Bay

Views of the massive bay and the impressive engineering of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel.

🎰

Atlantic City

Look for the distinctive casino towers and the historic boardwalk along the New Jersey coastline.

🗽

Manhattan Skyline

Depending on the wind/runway configuration, a stunning view of the Statue of Liberty and the NYC skyline during the EWR approach.

The right side is the 'money' side for this route. For the best lighting, book a morning flight to see the coastline illuminated from the side, or an afternoon flight to see the NYC skyline glowing in the golden hour. During landing, keep your camera ready for the Statue of Liberty, which often appears on the right if landing on Newark's runways 4L/4R.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🐊

Florida Everglades

Expansive views of the river of grass and wetland ecosystems shortly after takeoff from FLL.

🏙️

Mid-Atlantic Urban Corridor

Distant views of major cities like Richmond, Washington D.C., and Baltimore as the flight tracks north.

🔔

Philadelphia Skyline

Clear sightlines of the Center City skyscrapers and the Delaware River during the final descent phase.

🌳

Garden State Interior

The lush green landscapes and suburban sprawl of western New Jersey as the plane maneuvers for landing.

The left side provides a great perspective of the US interior and avoids the morning sun glare. It is particularly interesting for spotting the dense urban development of the Northeast Corridor during the last 30 minutes of the flight. Sit here if you prefer sunset views over land on an evening flight.
