Blue Mountains
Shortly after takeoff, view the mist-covered peaks of Jamaica's highest mountain range to the north.
Tiburon Peninsula
Observe the long, rugged finger of southern Haiti stretching into the Caribbean Sea.
Île-à-Vache
A stunning small island located just off the southern coast of Les Cayes, Haiti, surrounded by reefs.
Sierra de Bahoruco
Lush, high-altitude mountain forests visible as the flight enters Dominican Republic airspace.
Barahona Coast
The striking contrast of deep blue waters against white limestone cliffs and coastal roads.
Fly during the morning to avoid the heavy afternoon cloud cover that often obscures mountain peaks. Seat yourself forward of the wing for an unobstructed view of the coastline as the plane hugs the shore of Hispaniola. Keep your window shade open during the midpoint of the flight for the best view of the Haitian mountains.

Port of Kingston
Look down immediately after takeoff to see the bustling activity of the world's seventh-largest natural harbor.
Caribbean Expanse
Endless views of the deep blue Caribbean Sea stretching toward the southern horizon.
SDQ Shoreline
The final approach provides a close-up view of the rocky shores and turquoise waters near the airport.
The right side is significantly less scenic but ideal for travelers who prefer to avoid the glare of the sun during morning or midday flights. It offers a more relaxing, minimalist view of the Caribbean Sea with less visual distraction. Choose this side if you want to focus on the arrival into Santo Domingo.
