🏙️

Boston Metro Area

Shortly after takeoff, look southeast to see the distant skyline of Boston and the Massachusetts coastline.

🌊

Long Island Sound

A broad view of the Connecticut shoreline and the coastal towns bordering the sound.

🗽

Manhattan Skyline

Clear days provide a breathtaking view of New York City's skyscrapers as you pass over the New Jersey corridor.

🏖️

Jersey Shore

The long stretches of sandy beaches and coastal lagoons along the New Jersey shoreline.

🌉

Chesapeake Bay

An expansive view of the massive estuary and its complex shoreline during the final descent into Baltimore.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing on the left for unobstructed views of the NYC skyline. Morning flights offer the best lighting for coastal details, while the Chesapeake Bay is most dramatic during golden hour.

The right side is ideal for sunset lovers on evening flights, as the sun dips below the inland hills. Watch for the Susquehanna River bridges as a signal that landing is approximately 15 minutes away.
