Blue Mountains
Lush, rugged peaks of Jamaica's highest mountain range immediately after takeoff from Kingston.
Central Cuban Coast
Views of the rural landscapes and southern coastline of Cuba as the flight crosses the island.
Appalachian Ridge
The long, parallel ridges of the Appalachian Mountains stretching through Virginia and Pennsylvania.
Lake Erie Shoreline
The transition from the US to Canada over the northern banks of the Great Lakes.
Niagara Falls
A breathtaking view of both the American and Horseshoe Falls during the northern descent.
Toronto Skyline
Unobstructed views of the CN Tower and downtown financial district when landing on runways 05 or 06.
For the best experience, choose a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. Niagara Falls usually appears about 15-20 minutes before landing; listen to pilot announcements for the exact side as it can vary slightly by air traffic control routing. In the morning, the sun will be on the right side, giving the left side clearer, glare-free views for photography.

The Bahamas Cays
Turquoise waters and scattered coral islands of the western Bahamas during the mid-flight transit.
Chesapeake Bay
Vast intricate waterways and coastal wetlands of the Maryland and Virginia region.
Finger Lakes
Distinctive narrow, glacial lakes in Upstate New York visible on clear days.
Lake Ontario
The deep blue expanse of the easternmost Great Lake as the plane turns for its final approach.
The right side is ideal for catching the sunrise if you are on an early morning departure from KIN. It also offers better views of the Atlantic coastline if the flight is routed further east to avoid weather. During winter, look for the 'lake effect' cloud formations over the Great Lakes which create unique atmospheric patterns.
