Which side of the plane to sit from Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport (Basse Terre) to Lynden Pindling International Airport (Nassau)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled view of the northern Greater Antilles and the breathtaking contrast between the deep Atlantic and the shallow Bahamian banks.
Virgin Islands
A beautiful cluster of islands including St. John and Tortola surrounded by turquoise waters.
Old San Juan
Spot the historic Spanish forts of San Felipe del Morro guarding the entrance to the bay.
Turks and Caicos
The vivid white sands and brilliant blue reefs of the Caicos Bank are a major mid-flight highlight.
Glass Window Bridge
The narrowest point of Eleuthera where the dark Atlantic meets the turquoise Bight of Eleuthera.
The right side is the winner for reef spotting. Aim for a midday flight when the sun is high to maximize the visibility of the coral reefs and sandbars in the Turks and Caicos and the Bahamas.
Montserrat
Soon after takeoff, look south to see the smoking peak of the Soufriere Hills volcano.
St. Croix
The sprawling green landscape of the largest U.S. Virgin Island sits to the south of the flight path.
Port-au-Prince
Views of the Haitian capital nestled between the mountains and the Gulf of Gonave.
The Exumas
A stunning 120-mile long island chain featuring some of the clearest water on Earth.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the harsh northern sun and offers the best view of the volcanic peaks in the Leeward Islands. Keep your camera ready immediately after departure from St. Kitts.
