PUJ → YYZ
Which side of the plane to sit from Punta Cana International Airport (Punta Cana) to Lester B. Pearson International Airport (Toronto)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the turquoise waters of the Bahamas, the rugged US East Coast, and a potentially spectacular view of Niagara Falls and the Toronto skyline upon arrival.

Bahamas Archipelago
Vibrant turquoise waters and coral reefs of the Exuma Cays shortly after departure.
Outer Banks
The distinctive narrow barrier islands of North Carolina visible as you head north.
Chesapeake Bay
Aerial view of the massive estuary and the outskirts of the D.C. and Baltimore metro areas.
Appalachian Ridges
The characteristic parallel folds of the mountains spanning through Pennsylvania.
Niagara Falls
Frequently visible on the left side during descent into Pearson when approaching from the south.
Sit in front of the wing for the clearest views of the Bahamas. This side avoids direct glare during afternoon flights. On final approach to YYZ, keep your camera ready for Niagara Falls; the pilot often tracks directly over the Niagara River.

Atlantic Sunrise
Unobstructed views of the horizon, perfect for morning flights departing Punta Cana.
Finger Lakes
The deep, glacial elongated lakes of Upstate New York visible during the descent phase.
Lake Ontario
Vast expanse of the Great Lake as the aircraft crosses the international border into Canada.
Toronto Skyline
Glimpses of the CN Tower and downtown core depending on the specific landing runway assignment.
Choose this side if you prefer seeing the deep blue of the Atlantic and the unique patterns of the Finger Lakes. Be aware that this side will face the sun for a large portion of the northbound flight, so keep the window shade partially down if flying midday.
