Which side of the plane to sit from Tres De Mayo Airport (Puerto Asis) to Alfonso Bonilla Aragon International Airport (Cali)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panorama of the Central Cordillera's volcanic peaks and a stunning overview of the fertile Cauca Valley floor during the descent into Cali.
Río Putumayo
Witness the massive, winding brown curves of the river system snaking through the jungle floor near the airport.
Puracé Volcano
On clear days, the active volcanic complex near Popayán is visible as you traverse the high-altitude section.
Cauca Valley Estates
The striking geometric patterns of the massive sugar cane plantations that define the region's landscape.
Cali Skyline
A panoramic view of the 'Salsa Capital' and the city center as the plane lines up for the runway at Palmira.
The right side provides the most diverse scenery, ranging from river meanders to high-altitude volcanoes. Look out for the snow-capped peaks of the Central Cordillera in the distance if the visibility is high.
Amazonian Canopy
Expansive views of the dense, deep green tropical rainforest immediately after departing Puerto Asis.
Serranía de los Churumbelos
Dramatic rocky ridges where the Amazon basin abruptly meets the rising Andean foothills.
Farallones de Cali
The massive, jagged blue peaks of the Western Cordillera visible during the descent into the valley.
Southern Cali Suburbs
Clear views of Jamundí and the expanding residential areas south of Cali during the final approach.
Choose the left side for the best proximity to the Farallones rock formations. Early morning flights are highly recommended to avoid the heavy convective cloud build-up that typically obscures the mountains by midday.
