Which side of the plane to sit from Brigadier Mayor D Cesar Raul Ojeda Airport (San Luis) to Jorge Newbery Airpark (Buenos Aires)?
Right Side of the Plane
While the left offers views of the Rio de la Plata, the Right Side is the clear winner for its unparalleled panorama of the Buenos Aires skyline, football stadiums, and the massive urban expanse during the final approach.
