PBM → GEO
Which side of the plane to sit from Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport (Zandery) to Cheddi Jagan International Airport (Georgetown)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior perspective of the Guiana coastline, where the massive, silt-laden rivers meet the Atlantic Ocean, offering a dynamic view of river deltas and the approach into Georgetown.

Atlantic Coastline
The unique brown-water coastline where the sediment from the Amazon River travels north along the shelf.
Corentyne River Mouth
The massive estuary that marks the international border between Suriname and Guyana.
Georgetown Waterfront
The colorful colonial architecture and the iconic sea wall visible during the final descent into GEO.
Demerara Harbor Bridge
A view of the long floating bridge spanning the Demerara River just south of the city.
This side is highly recommended for the approach into Georgetown. To avoid the intense tropical glare, afternoon flights are best on this side. You will get a clear view of the muddy 'plumes' where the rivers discharge into the ocean, which is a signature geographic feature of the Guianas.

Guiana Shield Rainforest
An endless expanse of pristine, dense tropical canopy extending toward the southern horizon.
Upper Berbice River
Serpentine river bends carving through the deep green jungle of eastern Guyana.
Interior Savannas
Small clearings and agricultural patches that break the forest landscape near the Suriname-Guyana border.
Choose this side if you prefer the aesthetic of deep, untouched jungle. On early morning departures, the low sun angle creates dramatic shadows over the forest floor. Keep an eye out for the distinct red-dirt roads that provide the only ground access to the interior.
