RHD → AEP
Which side of the plane to sit from Termas de Río Hondo international Airport (Rio Hondo) to Jorge Newbery Airpark (Buenos Aires)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most dramatic views of the Buenos Aires urban skyline and the vast agricultural patterns of the Pampas, culminating in a spectacular close-up of the city's landmarks during the descent into AEP.
The Pampas
The endless, geometric patchwork of Argentina's fertile heartland stretching to the horizon.
Sierras de Córdoba
The distant silhouettes of the mountain ranges visible to the west under clear sky conditions.
Rosario City
The massive urban sprawl of Argentina's third-largest city along the banks of the Paraná.
Buenos Aires Skyline
An unbeatable view of the city's high-rises, including the Retiro and Puerto Madero districts.
Puerto Madero
The modernized port area and the 'Puente de la Mujer' are clearly visible during the low-altitude descent.
The right side is essential for the iconic 'city view' of Buenos Aires. For the best photography, choose a seat forward of the wing. On late afternoon flights, you will witness the sunset over the flat horizon of the Pampas, casting a golden glow over the urban sprawl as you land.
Río Dulce
The meandering river that feeds the Termas de Río Hondo reservoir right after takeoff.
Mar Chiquita (Ansenuza)
One of the world's largest salt lakes, visible as a massive shimmering body of water to the east.
Paraná Delta
A labyrinth of green islands and reddish-brown water channels just before reaching the capital.
Río de la Plata
The widest river in the world, providing a vast horizon as the plane banks for its final approach.
River Plate Stadium
The iconic 'Monumental' stadium is often visible on the left during the final seconds before landing.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side provides excellent views of the delta's ecosystem and the sheer scale of the Río de la Plata. During the final approach, look for the 'Monumental' stadium and the greenery of the northern suburbs.
