Which side of the plane to sit from Savannah Hilton Head International Airport (Savannah) to General Edward Lawrence Logan International Airport (Boston)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the iconic Northeast megalopolis, including potential glimpses of the New York City skyline and the rolling terrain of the Eastern Seaboard.
Northeast Corridor
Bird's-eye views of the urban stretch connecting Philadelphia and the surrounding metro areas.
New York City Skyline
Depending on the flight path, a stunning view of Manhattan's skyscrapers and the Hudson River.
Connecticut River Valley
The winding river and lush greenery of the New England countryside as you cross into Massachusetts.
Boston City Views
On final approach into Logan, views of the Charles River, Fenway Park, and the Back Bay neighborhood.
Chesapeake Bay Western Shore
The intricate network of inlets and peninsulas along the Maryland and Virginia coastlines.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see NYC. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you (to the east), providing clear, well-lit views of the cities without glare. If the flight path stays inland, look for the Potomac River early in the second half of the trip.
The Outer Banks
The long, thin barrier islands of North Carolina, including Cape Hatteras and Kitty Hawk.
The Jersey Shore
Miles of sandy beaches, boardwalks, and coastal towns stretching toward the New York harbor.
Long Island & The Hamptons
A clear view of the South Shore beaches and the exclusive estates of the East End.
Cape Cod & Islands
Distinctive views of Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, and the 'elbow' of Cape Cod during the descent.
Boston Harbor Islands
A close look at the historic fortresses and lighthouses scattered throughout the harbor as you touch down.
The right side is perfect for coastal enthusiasts. Watch for the 'hook' of Cape Cod about 20 minutes before landing. In the winter, the low sun in the south can create heavy shadows on this side, so mid-day flights are best for photography. If landing from the east, you will have a front-row seat to the Atlantic horizon.
