LIM → ATL
Which side of the plane to sit from Jorge Chávez International Airport (Lima) to Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (Atlanta)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for witnessing the dramatic transition from the Andes Mountains to the Caribbean islands and the Florida coastline.
Andean Foothills
Aerial views of the rugged Peruvian coastal range immediately after departing Lima.
Panama Canal
High-altitude perspective of the world's most famous shipping shortcut during the Central American crossing.
Caribbean Archipelago
Vibrant turquoise waters and coral reefs as the flight passes over or near Cuba and the Bahamas.
Florida Everglades
The distinct, sprawling wetlands of South Florida visible upon entering US airspace.
Atlanta Suburbs
Dense forest canopy interspersed with the sprawling suburban landscape of the American South.
Request a 'K' or 'L' seat. For the best experience, choose a daytime flight. The highlight is the mid-flight crossing of the Panama Isthmus; use the flight tracker to time your window viewing. Keep your shades open during the first 45 minutes to see the Peruvian desert meeting the sea.
Pacific Expanse
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Pacific Ocean for the first half of the journey.
Pacific Sunset
On evening flights, witness a spectacular sunset over the western horizon.
ITCZ Cloud Formations
Towering cumulonimbus clouds often form over the Intertropical Convergence Zone near the equator.
Gulf Maritime Traffic
Spot large tankers and cargo ships navigating the Gulf of Mexico toward US ports.
Select an 'A' seat for sunset views on afternoon departures. This side is generally quieter visually, making it better for passengers who prefer a darker cabin for sleeping during the long overwater segments.
