Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers unparalleled views of the vibrant turquoise waters of the Great Bahama Bank and the string of Exuma islands before crossing the mountainous northern coast of Haiti.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Great Bahama Bank

Vivid turquoise shallow waters and intricate sand patterns visible shortly after reaching cruise altitude.

🏝️

Exuma Cays

A stunning chain of small islands and cays stretching across the Caribbean Sea.

⛰️

Massif du Nord

The dramatic, rugged mountain peaks of northern Haiti as you cross into Hispaniola.

🏙️

Port-au-Prince Basin

Panoramic views of the capital city and the surrounding Cul-de-Sac plain during descent.

🏖️

Labadee

Potential distant views of the scenic peninsula and cruise port on the northern coast.

Sit on the left for the most consistent island views. For the best photography of the Bahamas, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you. Mid-cabin seats can be obstructed by the wing, so aim for the front or very back of the aircraft.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🐊

Everglades Edge

Catch the sprawling wetlands of the Florida Everglades immediately after departing FLL.

🚢

Miami Skyline

Distant views of the Miami metro area and busy shipping lanes if the flight path hugs the coast.

🏝️

Île de la Gonâve

A massive, stark island located in the center of the Gulf of Gonâve during the final approach.

⛰️

Tiburon Peninsula

The long southern arm of Haiti, featuring high ridges and deep valleys.

⚓

Port-au-Prince Harbor

Views of the main industrial port and the coastline of the southern peninsula.

The right side is ideal for seeing the Florida coastline initially and the large Île de la Gonâve just before landing. Afternoon flights on this side may experience significant sun glare, so keep the window shade handy until the descent starts.
