Île de la Gonâve
A large, rugged island in the Gulf of Gonâve seen shortly after departure from PAP.
Great Inagua Island
The southernmost Bahamian island, known for its massive salt pans and flamingo populations.
Exuma Sound
Breathtaking contrasts between the deep blue ocean and the neon-turquoise shallows of the cays.
Port Everglades
Clear views of the massive cruise ships and container terminals during the final descent into FLL.
Fort Lauderdale Beach
Iconic views of the 'Venice of America' canals and the Atlantic shoreline just before touchdown.
Sit on the right for the best color contrast of the Bahamian reefs. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the turquoise waters perfectly. This side also provides a classic 'beachfront' view of Florida when landing on runways 10L or 10R.

Port-au-Prince Bay
Aerial view of the Haitian capital and the bustling port area immediately after takeoff.
Massif de la Hotte
The rugged, mountainous terrain of Haiti's southern peninsula visible to the west.
Eastern Cuba
Distant views of the mountainous coastline near Guantánamo and the Oriente province.
The Everglades
As the plane turns for final approach, the vast river of grass is visible to the west of the city.
Choose the left side for sunset views on late afternoon flights. Be prepared for direct sunlight and potential glare when flying northbound in the late day. It also offers a better view of the urban sprawl of South Florida if the flight approaches from the west.
