Pacific Coastline
A stunning departure view of the Costa Verde cliffs in Lima and the blue expanse of the Pacific Ocean.
Atacama Volcanoes
The stark, martian-like landscape of the high Atacama desert featuring perfectly conical volcanic peaks.
Salar de Uyuni
The world's largest salt flat, appearing as a brilliant white expanse that contrasts sharply with the surrounding red earth.
The Argentine Pampas
The endless patchwork of fertile agricultural fields and estancias that define the heart of Argentina.
Montevideo Bay
A classic view of the Cerro de Montevideo and the city's waterfront skyline during the final descent.
Choose the right side for afternoon flights to witness spectacular sunsets over the Rio de la Plata during arrival. The Salar de Uyuni is usually visible mid-flight; look for a massive white 'lake' that looks like ice. Ensure your window is clean, as the high-altitude desert light is perfect for high-contrast photography.

Central Andean Cordillera
Uninterrupted views of the massive snow-capped peaks and deep glacial valleys of the Peruvian and Bolivian Andes.
Lake Titicaca
The world's highest navigable lake, appearing as a deep sapphire jewel nestled between mountain ranges.
Amazonian Foothills
The dramatic transition where the high mountains meet the dense, green fringes of the upper Amazon basin.
Gran Chaco Plains
The vast, semi-arid lowland region of Bolivia and Paraguay characterized by unique scrubland patterns.
Uruguayan Riverbanks
Scenic views of the northern shores of the Rio de la Plata as you cross into Uruguayan airspace.
A morning flight is ideal for the left side to avoid the harsh glare of the sun while illuminating the eastern slopes of the Andes. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes after takeoff for the best mountain photography. If flying at night, look for the distant lights of La Paz and Santa Cruz.
