MBJ β†’ YYZ

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers spectacular views of the Bahamian islands early in the flight and is the most likely side to see the iconic Toronto skyline, including the CN Tower, during the approach to YYZ.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
πŸ–οΈ

Jamaica's North Coast

Lush tropical scenery and the coastline of Ocho Rios shortly after departure from MBJ.

🏝️

The Bahamas

Incredible turquoise waters and white sandbars of the Exumas and Andros Island about 45 minutes into the flight.

πŸŒ…

Atlantic Seaboard

Views of the Outer Banks of North Carolina and the breaking waves along the Atlantic coast.

πŸ™οΈ

U.S. East Coast Cities

Distant views of the Washington D.C. and Baltimore metropolitan areas during the mid-flight cruise.

🏒

Toronto Skyline

As the plane banks for arrival at YYZ, the right side usually offers the best view of the CN Tower and Lake Ontario.

For the best lighting over the Caribbean islands, choose the right side for afternoon flights. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing, as the right side offers the premier view of Downtown Toronto during standard approach paths.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

The Cayman Trench

The deep blue, crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea immediately after takeoff from Montego Bay.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡Ί

Western Cuba

Bird's-eye views of the Pinar del RΓ­o province and the unique limestone 'mogotes' of the ViΓ±ales Valley.

🐊

Florida Everglades

The vast, emerald-green wetlands of Southern Florida as you transition from the sea to the mainland.

⛰️

Appalachian Mountains

The long, parallel ridges of the Appalachian chain stretching through Pennsylvania and New York.

🌊

Niagara Falls

Depending on the arrival pattern (specifically if landing from the south), the falls may be visible on the left.

Sit on the left if you are flying in the morning to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is also your best bet for spotting Niagara Falls if the flight path tracks directly over the Niagara Peninsula during the descent.
