The Bay Islands
Incredible bird's-eye views of Utila and Roatán, surrounded by vibrant coral reefs and white sand beaches.
Western Cuba
Aerial perspective of the Cuban coastline and the capital city of Havana depending on the specific flight corridor.
Miami Skyline
A breathtaking view of Downtown Miami's skyscrapers and the high-rises lining Miami Beach.
South Florida Coast
The golden sands and turquoise waters stretching from Key Biscayne up through Hollywood Beach.
Port Everglades
Massive cruise ships and cargo terminals located immediately adjacent to the FLL airport perimeter.
This side is superior for coastal photography. Be ready early in the flight (within 15-25 minutes) to catch the Bay Islands. During the final approach to FLL, the right side usually provides the iconic view of the Florida shoreline and the Atlantic Ocean. Afternoon flights provide the best light for the Florida coast without sun glare.

Sula Valley
Dramatic views of the Merendón mountain range surrounding San Pedro Sula during initial climb.
Belize Barrier Reef
Distant turquoise patches indicating the world's second-largest coral reef system to the west.
The Everglades
The vast 'River of Grass' wetlands visible as the aircraft crosses into the Florida peninsula.
Weston and Sunrise
Intricate patterns of suburban canal communities characteristic of South Florida's western edge.
Sit in front of the wing to maximize the view of the Everglades during the descent. Morning flights are ideal for this side to avoid the harsh afternoon sun. Keep an eye out for the transition from the deep blue Caribbean to the shallow, light-green waters of the Florida shelf.
