Which side of the plane to sit from Point Salines International Airport (Point Salines) to Piarco International Airport (Port-of-spain)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side provides a spectacular vantage point for the approach into Trinidad, featuring the unique islands of the Dragon's Mouths and a panoramic view of the Port of Spain skyline against the Gulf of Paria.
Grand Anse Beach
Grenada’s premier white sand beach is visible shortly after departing Point Salines if the flight path tracks west.
Bocas del Dragón
The 'Dragon's Mouths' are a series of narrow straits and islets like Monos and Chacachacare between Trinidad and Venezuela.
Port of Spain Skyline
Trinidad's capital city, featuring the Waterfront, the Red House, and the greenery of Queen's Park Savannah.
Gulf of Paria
The vast, calm body of water between Trinidad and Venezuela, often filled with large tankers and cargo vessels.
Chaguaramas Peninsula
A view of the major yachting and industrial hub located at the northwestern tip of Trinidad.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Gulf of Paria. This side provides the best chance to see the coastline of Venezuela on clear days. Since this flight is very short (approx. 40 minutes), keep your camera ready from the moment the seatbelt sign turns off.
St. George's Harbor
A stunning look at Grenada's capital, built into a volcanic crater with vibrant colonial architecture.
Grenada Forested Peaks
Views of the lush, mountainous interior and the Grand Etang National Park as the plane climbs south.
The Atlantic Divide
Observation of the distinct color change where the Caribbean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean currents.
Trinidad's Northern Range
The dense, tropical rainforest canopy covering the rugged mountains that protect Trinidad's north coast.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is superior for viewing the colorful harbor of St. George's immediately after takeoff from GND. During the final descent, watch for the agricultural landscapes of the Caroni Plains.
