RVE → BOG
Which side of the plane to sit from Los Colonizadores Airport (Saravena) to El Dorado International Airport (Bogota)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is exceptional as it provides a clear, close-up view of the Sierra Nevada del Cocuy, which features the most significant glacial peaks in the Colombian Andes.
Search flights from RVE to BOG
Sierra Nevada del Cocuy
The crown jewel of the route: spectacular snow-capped peaks and glaciers including Pan de Azucar and Ritacuba Blanco.
High Andean Ridges
Sharp, dramatic rock formations and deep valleys typical of the high-altitude Eastern Cordillera geography.
Tunja Cityscape
The historic capital of Boyacá, situated on a high plateau, visible as the plane moves south-southwest.
Sisga Reservoir
A beautiful deep blue body of water surrounded by pine forests, marking the entry into the Sabana de Bogota.
Sabana de Bogota
The fertile, flat high-altitude basin where the city is located, dotted with greenhouses and small towns.
The Sierra Nevada del Cocuy is the absolute highlight; it usually appears 15-20 minutes after departure. To see the glaciers clearly, book flights during the dry season (December to March). Use a fast shutter speed on your camera to capture the mountain ridges through the atmospheric haze common at high altitudes.

Llanos Orientales
The vast, flat tropical grasslands extending east toward the Venezuelan border immediately after takeoff.
Andean Piedmont
The dramatic rising slopes where the flat plains meet the sharp incline of the Eastern Cordillera.
Laguna de Tota
Colombia's largest lake, famous for its high-altitude white sand beach (Playa Blanca), visible in the distance.
Pisba National Park
Rugged high-altitude moorlands (paramos) and cloud forests critical for the region's water supply.
Eastern Hills of Bogota
The iconic peaks of Monserrate and Guadalupe as the aircraft prepares for its final approach into El Dorado.
Choose a window seat behind the wing to get an unobstructed view of the transition from the plains to the mountains. Morning flights (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM) offer the best lighting for the Llanos and reduce the chance of afternoon cloud cover over the Tota Lake area.
