Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers a superior viewing experience with iconic views of the NYC skyline shortly after takeoff, the intricate geography of the Chesapeake Bay, and a front-row seat to the Kennedy Space Center and Florida's unique inland waterways.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏙️

Manhattan Skyline

Shortly after takeoff from HPN, see the dense skyscrapers of NYC and the Statue of Liberty to the west.

🦀

Chesapeake Bay

Witness the massive estuary system and the intricate network of rivers feeding into the Mid-Atlantic.

🚀

Kennedy Space Center

Pass near Cape Canaveral to see the massive Vehicle Assembly Building and launch pads.

🌊

Lake Okeechobee

The 'Big O' is visible as a massive inland sea in the center of the Florida peninsula.

🚤

Intracoastal Waterway

Detailed views of the luxury yachts and mansions lining the canals of Jupiter and West Palm Beach.

🏢

Downtown West Palm Beach

The skyline and the Kravis Center are often visible just before touchdown.

The right side is the 'landmark' side. For evening flights, you will be treated to a sunset over the mainland. Keep your camera ready immediately after departure for the New York skyline, and watch the Florida coastline transform from rural marshland to dense urban sprawl.

🌊

Atlantic Coastline

Enjoy views of the Jersey Shore and the vast Atlantic Ocean early in the flight.

🏝️

The Outer Banks

See the thin, sandy strips of North Carolina's barrier islands stretching into the sea.

🚢

Charleston Harbor

Look for the historic South Carolina port and the distinct Ravenel Bridge.

🏖️

Florida Gold Coast

Panoramic views of the turquoise Atlantic waters and the shelf where the Gulf Stream flows.

🏨

Palm Beach Shoreline

A stunning view of the high-rise condos and beaches as the plane banks for its final approach.

Ideal for early morning flights to catch the sunrise over the Atlantic. This side is quieter for those who prefer the deep blue of the ocean over busy land features. On arrival, watch for the distinct color transition of the water near the reefs.
