Our Recommendation

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a front-row seat to the Atlantic coastline, featuring iconic views of the Eastern Seaboard, the Chesapeake Bay, and the vibrant turquoise waters of the Florida Gold Coast.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🌊

Lake Champlain

Aerial views of the massive lake separating New York and Vermont immediately after takeoff.

🗽

NYC & Jersey Shore

Distant views of the Manhattan skyline followed by the long, sandy stretches of the New Jersey coastline.

⚓

Chesapeake Bay

The intricate waterways, islands, and bridge-tunnels of the United States' largest estuary.

🏝️

The Outer Banks

The thin, fragile barrier islands of North Carolina standing against the Atlantic waves.

🏖️

Florida Gold Coast

Glittering views of West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, and Pompano Beach during the descent.

🏙️

Fort Lauderdale Beach

Crystal clear views of the Atlantic shoreline and high-rise condos as the plane prepares to land.

For morning flights, the left side will experience direct sunlight; use a window shade to prevent glare. This side is superior for coastal enthusiasts, as the flight path frequently hugs the shoreline. Keep an eye out for the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge and the unique geography of the Delmarva Peninsula mid-flight.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏔️

Adirondack Mountains

Views of the High Peaks region and dense forest canopy of upstate New York shortly after departure.

🍎

Hudson Valley

The winding Hudson River and the rolling Catskill Mountains visible to the west.

🌳

Piedmont Plateau

The transition from the Appalachian foothills to the flat coastal plains of the Carolinas.

🐊

The Everglades

If the flight approaches FLL from the west, you will see the vast 'River of Grass' and its unique wetlands.

🌆

South Florida Suburbs

The sprawling grid-like development and canal systems of Western Broward County.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Appalachian range or the Everglades. It offers a more 'land-based' perspective of the flight, showcasing the transition from Northern forests to Southern pine barrens and eventually tropical marshes.
