Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the most iconic landmarks, including the massive Lake Nicaragua shortly after takeoff, the vibrant Florida coastline, and the spectacular Manhattan skyline upon approach to Newark.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
๐ŸŒŠ

Lake Nicaragua

An incredible view of the largest lake in Central America and the twin volcanoes of Ometepe Island.

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡บ

Western Cuba

Look down over the lush, green landscapes of the Pinar del Rรญo province and the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Batabanรณ.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Florida Keys & Miami

Bright turquoise reefs and the dense high-rise skyline of Miami as the flight transitions to the Atlantic coast.

๐Ÿš€

Kennedy Space Center

Clear views of the launch pads at Cape Canaveral and the unique geography of the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Manhattan Skyline

The 'grand prize' view: if landing from the north, you will see the Empire State Building, One World Trade Center, and Central Park.

This side is the 'Scenic Side' for the NYC arrival. Book a window seat behind the wing to ensure your view of the Manhattan skyline isn't obstructed. On clear days, the transition from the Caribbean blue to the deep Atlantic blue near the Bahamas is breathtaking.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
๐ŸŒ‹

Guanacaste Volcanoes

Witness the rugged volcanic peaks of northern Costa Rica, including Rincรณn de la Vieja, shortly after departure.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Nicaraguan Pacific Coast

Aerial views of the dramatic, untamed beaches and surf breaks along the southwestern coast of Nicaragua.

๐ŸŠ

Florida Everglades

As you cross into the US, see the vast, river-of-grass wetlands stretching across the southern tip of Florida.

๐Ÿ›๏ธ

Mid-Atlantic Metros

Distant views of the Washington D.C. and Philadelphia metropolitan areas as the flight tracks north.

๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Port Newark

A bird's-eye view of one of the world's busiest container ports during the final descent into EWR.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. During the descent into EWR, this side provides the best view of the industrial Meadowlands and the logistical hubs of New Jersey. Watch for the Chesapeake Bay during the mid-flight transition.
