Which side of the plane to sit from Cheddi Jagan International Airport (Georgetown) to Piarco International Airport (Port-of-spain)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the departure over the massive Demerara River and provides a more detailed view of the Trinidadian coastline and the Gulf of Paria during the approach to Piarco.

Demerara River Mouth
Witness the massive, tea-colored freshwater discharge of the Demerara River as it meets the Atlantic Ocean upon takeoff.
Georgetown Seawall
A clear view of the historic coastal defense system and the urban sprawl of Guyana's capital city.
Gulf of Paria
As you descend into Trinidad, see the calm waters and numerous industrial vessels anchored near the Point Lisas industrial estate.
San Fernando Hill
A prominent ancient argillite outcrop that stands out against the relatively flat terrain of southern Trinidad.
For the best experience, book a morning flight (8:00 AM - 10:00 AM) to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Guyanese coastline and the vibrant greens of the Trinidadian landscape. Look out for the 'brown water' line where river silt meets the ocean. During descent, this side often sees the Pitch Lake in La Brea if the flight path takes a southerly route.

Atlantic Horizon
Unobstructed views of the deep blue Atlantic Ocean during the cruise portion of the short flight.
The Northern Range
Upon arrival, view the lush, mountainous spine of Trinidad that reaches heights of over 900 meters.
Caroni Bird Sanctuary
Catch a glimpse of the sprawling mangrove wetlands just west of the airport, a haven for the Scarlet Ibis.
The right side is ideal for spotting the dramatic peaks of the Northern Range as the plane aligns for Runway 10. Avoid late afternoon flights on this side to prevent heavy sun glare. Keep your eyes peeled for the smaller islands of the 'Bocas' to the far north-west if the plane makes a wide turn for its final approach.
