Which side of the plane to sit from Miami International Airport (Miami) to V.C. Bird International Airport (Antigua)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a front-row seat to the stunning archipelago of the Caribbean. From the mesmerizing turquoise patterns of the Exumas to the dramatic volcanic peaks of the Leeward Islands, this side provides constant visual interest as you hug the main island chains of the Greater and Lesser Antilles.

Exuma Cays
Incredible patterns of sandbars and shallow turquoise water that look like abstract art from 30,000 feet.
Hispaniola Coastline
The rugged northern coast of the Dominican Republic, including the lush Samana Peninsula and the Cordillera Septentrional mountains.
San Juan & El Yunque
A clear view of the historic Old San Juan district and the misty, green canopy of the El Yunque National Forest.
Virgin Islands
A dense cluster of mountainous islands including St. Thomas, St. John, and Tortola surrounded by white-sailed yachts.
Saba & Montserrat
The dramatic volcanic silhouettes of Saba and the active Soufriere Hills volcano on Montserrat, often seen venting steam.
St. Kitts & Nevis
The iconic dual peaks of Mount Liamuiga and Nevis Peak rising sharply from the Caribbean Sea.
The right side is unbeatable for island spotting. Choose a seat behind the wing to ensure your view of the volcanic peaks is not obstructed. For afternoon flights, be aware the sun will be on this side; close the window shade during the mid-flight over open water to keep the cabin cool, but open it as you approach Puerto Rico.

Miami & South Beach
Dramatic aerial views of the Miami skyline, the Port of Miami, and the iconic coastline of South Beach immediately after takeoff.
Eleuthera & Cat Island
Views of the long, thin island of Eleuthera where the dark blue Atlantic meets the shallow turquoise waters of the Exuma Sound.
Turks and Caicos
The eastern edges of the Caicos Bank and the historic lighthouse at the northern tip of Grand Turk.
Puerto Rico Trench
As you pass north of Puerto Rico, you fly over the deepest part of the Atlantic Ocean, marked by a shift to a deep indigo hue.
Barbuda
On the final approach to Antigua, look for the low-lying, coral-fringed sister island known for its vast pink sand beaches.
Sit on the left if you want the best views of the Miami departure and the specific approach into V.C. Bird International. Morning flights are ideal for the left side to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun reflecting off the ocean.
