POSYYZ

Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is generally superior for this route as it offers better positioning for spotting the Florida coastline, the Appalachian mountain range, and a high probability of seeing Niagara Falls during the descent into the Greater Toronto Area.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🌊

Caribbean Azure

Deep turquoise waters and vibrant coral reefs visible shortly after departing Trinidad's northern coast.

🚀

Florida Space Coast

Clear views of Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Center launch pads as the flight tracks north.

⛰️

Appalachian Ridges

The unique folded mountain geography of the eastern United States, particularly over Virginia and Pennsylvania.

💧

Lake Erie

Crossing the international border over the vast freshwater expanse of the Great Lakes.

🌊

Niagara Falls

A breathtaking aerial perspective of the Horseshoe and American Falls during the standard arrival sequence.

Book a window seat on the left for a daytime flight to maximize your chances of seeing Niagara Falls. On approach to YYZ (usually runways 23 or 24R), the left side provides the most consistent views of the Niagara Escarpment and the falls. Early morning departures from POS ensure the sun is behind the aircraft for the best photography lighting.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏝️

The Antilles Chain

Excellent views of the volcanic islands of the Caribbean if the flight path takes a more easterly trajectory.

🏖️

Bahamian Cays

Spectacular patterns of shallow sandbanks and emerald waters throughout the Bahamas archipelago.

🏖️

The Outer Banks

The thin, sandy barrier islands of North Carolina visible against the deep blue Atlantic Ocean.

🏙️

Toronto Skyline

A distant view of the CN Tower and the downtown core as the aircraft turns for final approach over Lake Ontario.

The right side is ideal for spotting the string of Caribbean islands early in the flight. If the flight arrives in Toronto after sunset, the right side offers a beautiful view of the illuminated GTA (Greater Toronto Area) and the city lights reflecting off Lake Ontario. Ensure your window is clean for high-altitude shots of the Bahamian reefs.
