Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a stunning visual journey over the Turks and Caicos and the iconic turquoise sand banks of the Exumas before crossing the South Florida coastline.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Turks and Caicos

Aerial views of the coral reefs and crystal-clear waters surrounding Providenciales.

🌊

Great Bahama Bank

The dramatic 'underwater desert' of white sand dunes and shallow teal waters visible from cruising altitude.

🇧🇸

Exuma Cays

A chain of tiny, pristine islands surrounded by some of the most vibrant blue water in the world.

🏙️

South Florida Coast

The dense urban development and intricate canal systems of Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale during the descent.

For the best experience, book a window seat behind the wing to avoid engine glare. On afternoon flights, the sun will be on the left side, so keep your window shade ready to manage brightness while capturing the Bahamian colors.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Atlantic Horizon

Expansive views of the deep blue Atlantic Ocean, often dotted with large cruise ships and cargo vessels.

🏝️

Abaco Islands

The northernmost reaches of the Bahamas, featuring secluded cays and lush green vegetation.

🔦

Jupiter Inlet

The iconic red Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse is often visible as the plane turns for its final approach to PBI.

🏰

Palm Beach Estates

Bird's-eye view of the massive mansions and manicured lawns of 'Billionaires Row' on Palm Beach Island.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the direct tropical sun. Look out during the final 10 minutes of the flight for a spectacular view of the Florida shoreline and the Loxahatchee River.
