Which side of the plane to sit from Juana Azurduy De Padilla Airport (Sucre) to Jorge Wilsterman International Airport (Cochabamba)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most iconic views of Sucre's colonial architecture immediately after takeoff and provides a dramatic perspective of the high-altitude Andean ridges and the massive Cerro Tunari peak as you approach Cochabamba.
Sucre Colonial Center
A bird's-eye view of the 'White City' with its distinctive terracotta roofs and colonial plazas shortly after departure.
Cal Orck'o Wall
The massive limestone cliff containing thousands of dinosaur footprints is often visible just north of the city.
Cordillera de los Frailes
High-altitude mountain ranges featuring deep red and ochre mineral hues and rugged, jagged peaks.
Cerro Tunari
The highest peak in the region at over 5,000 meters, dominating the western horizon as the plane enters the Cochabamba valley.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see the historic center of Sucre. Choose a morning flight (08:00–10:00) to ensure the sun is behind you, illuminating the white buildings of Sucre and the colorful minerals of the mountains without harsh glare.
Rio Caine Canyon
Deep, winding canyons and riverbeds that showcase the intense erosion patterns of the Bolivian highlands.
Mizque Valleys
Small agricultural settlements and green patches tucked into the dry, brown folds of the inter-Andean valleys.
Angostura Reservoir
A large blue body of water that serves as a landmark for the final approach into Jorge Wilsterman Airport.
Cristo de la Concordia
Depending on the landing pattern, you may spot the giant Christ statue overlooking Cochabamba on the San Pedro hill.
The right side is excellent for observing the contrast between the arid mountains and the lush valley floors. During descent into Cochabamba, keep your camera ready for the Angostura reservoir, which provides a stark blue contrast to the earthy tones of the landscape.
