MIA → EWR
Which side of the plane to sit from Miami International Airport (Miami) to Newark Liberty International Airport (Newark)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a spectacular coastal journey, featuring the Florida coastline, rocket launch pads at Cape Canaveral, and the iconic Manhattan skyline during the final approach into Newark.
Florida Gold Coast
Bird's-eye view of the turquoise waters and luxury high-rises of Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton.
Kennedy Space Center
The massive Vehicle Assembly Building and historic launch complexes at Cape Canaveral are often visible.
The Outer Banks
The distinctive thin ribbon of barrier islands and lighthouses stretching along the North Carolina coast.
Manhattan Skyline
A world-class view of the Statue of Liberty and the New York City skyscrapers when approaching EWR from the south.
For the best experience, book a window seat away from the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of Manhattan during the 'Bridge Visual' or standard arrivals to Runways 4L/R. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after takeoff for the Space Coast and 10 minutes before landing for the NYC skyline. Evening flights offer a beautiful 'city lights' display of the Jersey Shore.
Everglades National Park
Vast wetlands and sawgrass marshes visible immediately after a westward departure from MIA.
Orlando Resorts
Distant views of major theme parks and the interconnected lake systems of Central Florida.
Mid-Atlantic Corridor
Aerial perspectives of the urban sprawl between Washington D.C. and Baltimore as you head north.
Philadelphia Skyline
Clear views of the Center City skyscrapers and the Delaware River during the initial descent phase.
The left side is preferable for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the rising sun over the Atlantic. It provides a better look at the inland geography and the dense population centers of the Northeast Corridor. Look for the distinct grid patterns of suburban Jersey during the final minutes of flight.
