Narragansett Bay
Aerial views of Newport and the islands of Rhode Island immediately after takeoff.
Long Island Sound
A continuous view of the northern coastline and beaches of Long Island to the south.
Manhattan Skyline
Unrivaled views of the Empire State Building and One World Trade Center during the descent.
Statue of Liberty
Often visible on the final turn into Newark's runways 22L or 22R.
Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge
The massive suspension bridge connecting Brooklyn and Staten Island can be seen in the distance.
Sit on the left (Port side) for the 'River Visual' approach which often follows the Hudson River. This flight is very short (about 40-50 minutes in the air), so have your camera ready within 15 minutes of takeoff. Night flights are particularly stunning on this side as the NYC lights are spectacular.

Yale University
The historic campus and Gothic architecture of New Haven are visible mid-flight.
The Palisades
Dramatic basalt cliffs lining the western side of the Hudson River.
George Washington Bridge
A bird's-eye view of one of the world's busiest motor vehicle bridges.
MetLife Stadium
The home of the Giants and Jets is clearly visible in the Meadowlands during the final descent.
Port Newark
Massive container ships and cranes at one of the busiest ports on the East Coast.
The right side is better for viewing the inland landscapes of Connecticut and the rugged Palisades. If traveling during the morning, this side will have the sun behind the plane, reducing glare on the window. Look for the Tappan Zee Bridge shortly before entering the North Jersey airspace.
