Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior viewing experience, featuring the stunning New England coastline, the expansive Chesapeake Bay, and a panoramic view of the Atlantic Ocean and Grand Strand during the final approach into Myrtle Beach.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Lake Champlain

Early views of the deep blue waters of Lake Champlain and the rolling Green Mountains of Vermont to the east.

🏙️

New York City Corridor

On clear days, views of the Long Island Sound and the distant silhouette of the Manhattan skyline are possible.

⚓

Chesapeake Bay

A sprawling perspective of the nation's largest estuary, including the intricate inlets of the Delmarva Peninsula.

🏖️

Outer Banks

The thin, sandy barrier islands of North Carolina appear as a delicate thread between the Sound and the Atlantic.

✈️

The Grand Strand

A spectacular low-altitude view of the 60-mile stretch of continuous beach as the plane prepares for landing.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. During the descent into MYR, keep your camera ready for the transition from the deep blue Atlantic to the white sandy beaches. If the flight path takes a more easterly track, you will have the best vantage point for spotting coastal lighthouses and maritime traffic.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Adirondack High Peaks

Immediate views of the rugged, forested terrain of New York's Adirondack Park shortly after takeoff.

🌲

Appalachian Mountains

A continuous vista of the rolling Blue Ridge and Appalachian mountain chains through Virginia and the Carolinas.

🏛️

Mid-Atlantic Metro

Distant views of the suburban sprawl of Baltimore and the Potomac River basin near Washington D.C.

⛳

Carolina Piedmont

The dense pine forests and meticulously carved golf courses of the inland Carolinas as you approach the coast.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Appalachian range. Look for the contrast between the dark green forest canopies and the urban centers of the Piedmont region. During the autumn months, this side offers the best views of the changing foliage across the mountainous terrain of the Northeast.
