Which side of the plane to sit from Point Salines International Airport (Point Salines) to Miami International Airport (Miami)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled view of the Caribbean island chains and the breathtaking turquoise water patterns of the Bahamas archipelago.
The Grenadines
A stunning string of small islands including Bequia, Mustique, and Canouan surrounded by coral reefs.
St. Vincent & The Pitons
Views of the volcanic peaks of St. Vincent and the iconic Pitons of St. Lucia in the distance.
Turks and Caicos
Brilliant white sand beaches and the deep blue transition of the Columbus Landfall Bank.
The Exumas
The most vibrant turquoise waters in the world with intricate sandbars and shallow channels.
Miami Beach & Key Biscayne
Panoramic views of the Atlantic coastline, luxury high-rises, and the Port of Miami during descent.
This side is essential for photographers wanting to capture the '50 shades of blue' in the Bahamas. For the best experience, sit well clear of the wing to see the island chains of the Lesser Antilles shortly after departure. Mid-day flights provide the best lighting to see through the shallow water to the reef structures below.
St. George's Coastline
Dramatic views of the Grenadian capital and the Carenage harbor immediately after takeoff.
Hispaniola Southern Coast
The rugged mountains and coastline of Haiti's southern peninsula during the mid-flight cruise.
Andros Island
View the largest island in the Bahamas, known for its extensive mangrove estuaries and blue holes.
The Everglades
The vast, emerald-green wetlands of Florida visible as the plane maneuvers for its final approach.
Choose this side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the Caribbean sun. During landing at MIA, if the plane approaches from the west, you will get a superior view of the Florida Everglades' unique ecosystem.
