MIA β LRM
Which side of the plane to sit from Miami International Airport (Miami) to Casa De Campo International Airport (La Romana)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the vibrant turquoise waters of the Bahamas and a more scenic coastal approach into La Romana.
Miami Skyline
Panoramic views of Downtown Miami, Brickell, and the sprawling Port of Miami shortly after takeoff.
Great Bahama Bank
Stunning contrasts of electric blue and white sand patterns in the shallow Bahamian waters.
Exuma Cays
A breathtaking chain of small islands and coral reefs stretching across the Atlantic.
SamanΓ‘ Peninsula
Distal views of the lush, mountainous northeast coast of the Dominican Republic during initial descent.
Casa de Campo Coastline
Aerial views of the iconic Teeth of the Dog golf course and the luxury villas of the resort on final approach.
For the best experience, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Caribbean blues. This side is particularly rewarding during the descent into LRM, as the flight path often banks to provide a direct view of the resort's coastline. Ensure your window is clean for the high-contrast sand bars near the Bahamas.
Everglades Frontier
The dramatic meeting point between Miami's urban sprawl and the wild Florida wetlands.
Andros Island
View of the largest island in the Bahamas, known for its deep blue holes and dense mangroves.
Cuban Northern Cays
On clear days, the distant white-sand keys of the Jardines del Rey archipelago are visible to the south.
Cordillera Oriental
The rolling green mountains and tropical canopy of the eastern Dominican Republic interior.
Bayahibe Village
A view of the charming fishing village and the marina where boats depart for Saona Island.
The right side is ideal for passengers who enjoy vast island geography and the mountainous interior of Hispaniola. Be aware that on afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side of the aircraft, which may cause significant glare. Keep an eye out for the transition from the deep Atlantic trench to the shallow Caribbean shelf.
