HAV → EZE
Which side of the plane to sit from José Martí International Airport (Havana) to Ministro Pistarini International Airport (Buenos Aires)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior for this route as it offers a spectacular sunrise over the Amazon basin on overnight flights and provides the iconic view of the Buenos Aires waterfront and Rio de la Plata during the final approach.
Jardines de la Reina
Aerial views of the stunning coral reefs and turquoise archipelagos off Cuba's southern coast.
Amazon Canopy
A vast, unbroken green carpet of rainforest occasionally cut by the winding brown coils of the Amazon's tributaries.
Atlantic Sunrise
On the standard overnight HAV-EZE schedule, this side witnesses a breathtaking sunrise over the South American continent.
Rio de la Plata
The world's widest estuary, where the brown silt of the Paraná meets the blue of the Atlantic.
Buenos Aires Skyline
Excellent views of the Puerto Madero skyscrapers and the city's dense urban layout during a northern approach.
For the best experience, choose a seat forward of the wing to ensure the engine and wing don't obstruct the vast Amazonian landscape. Since most flights are overnight, the left side will be hit by direct sunlight in the morning; keep your window shade down until you reach the Brazilian/Argentine border to rest, then open it for the spectacular descent into Buenos Aires.
Caribbean Sunset
Deep orange and purple hues over the Caribbean Sea shortly after departing Havana in the late afternoon.
Andean Cordillera
Distant, hazy views of the Colombian and Ecuadorian Andes mountains to the far west.
Pantanal Wetlands
The world's largest tropical wetland area, visible as a mosaic of flooded grasslands and lagoons.
Gran Chaco
The sparsely populated, semi-arid lowland region spanning across Paraguay and northern Argentina.
Argentine Pampas
The geometric beauty of Argentina's agricultural heartland, featuring massive soy and corn fields.
The right side is ideal for passengers who prefer a darker cabin during the morning hours of an overnight flight. It offers better views of the sunset over the Caribbean if your flight departs Havana before dusk. While the Andes are quite distant, on exceptionally clear days, the silhouette of the mountain range can be seen against the western horizon as you pass through the tropics.
