IGR → EZE
Which side of the plane to sit from Cataratas Del Iguazú International Airport (Iguazu Falls) to Ministro Pistarini International Airport (Buenos Aires)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the highest probability of seeing the Iguazú Falls shortly after takeoff and provides a superior view of the Buenos Aires urban sprawl and the Paraná River during the descent.
Iguazú Falls Aerial
A spectacular bird's-eye view of the Devil's Throat and the waterfall crescent if the flight banks right after takeoff.
Esteros del Iberá
The shimmering lagoons and wetlands of Corrientes, one of the largest freshwater ecosystems in the world.
Pampas Farmland
Perfectly geometric agricultural plots and cattle ranches that define the fertile heartland of Argentina.
Buenos Aires Skyline
Clear views of the downtown skyscrapers, Puerto Madero, and the sprawling metropolitan grid during the EZE approach.
River Plate Stadium
The iconic El Monumental stadium can often be spotted if the flight path tracks over the northern suburbs.
This is the 'scenic side' for this route. Request a window seat away from the wing for the best photography of the falls. During the evening, the right side captures the sunset over the pampas. When landing at EZE, look for the 'Ezeiza Forest'—the large green lung surrounding the airport.
Misiones Rainforest
Dense, emerald-green subtropical canopy stretching across the undulating terrain of the Misiones province.
Uruguay River
The natural border between Argentina and Uruguay, visible as a winding ribbon to the east.
Paraná Delta
A vast network of islands and sediment-rich channels where the river meets the Rio de la Plata.
Rio de la Plata
The world's widest estuary, appearing as a massive, muddy brown expanse during the final approach.
Sit on the left if you prefer soft, indirect light during morning flights. On approach to EZE, you may catch glimpses of the Uruguayan coast across the water if the visibility is high. Keep an eye out for the distinct change in water color where the Paraná and Uruguay rivers converge.
