MIA → GSO
Which side of the plane to sit from Miami International Airport (Miami) to Piedmont Triad International Airport (Greensboro)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the Atlantic coastline, iconic space infrastructure at Cape Canaveral, and the historic harbors of South Carolina.
Florida Gold Coast
Incredible views of Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and the turquoise Atlantic waters during climb out.
Kennedy Space Center
Look for the massive Vehicle Assembly Building and launch pads along the Cape Canaveral coastline.
Georgia Sea Islands
See the pristine marshes and barrier islands like Cumberland and St. Simons along the Georgia coast.
Charleston Harbor
Identify the Ravenel Bridge and the historic battery of downtown Charleston during the mid-flight phase.
Sit on the right for the best morning light on the coastline. Use a tracking app to time the passing of Cape Canaveral, which is usually visible about 30-40 minutes after departure.
The Everglades
View the vast 'River of Grass' and intricate canal systems shortly after takeoff from Miami.
Lake Okeechobee
Pass by Florida's massive inland sea, clearly visible as a giant circular body of water.
Central Florida Lakes
Spot the numerous lakes of the Orlando area and potentially the Disney/Universal resort footprints.
Uwharrie National Forest
Observe the ancient, rolling hills of the North Carolina Piedmont as you descend into Greensboro.
Choose the left side for sunset views on late afternoon flights to avoid direct glare. Keep an eye out early in the flight for the unique grid patterns of the Florida agricultural zones.
