Which side of the plane to sit from Teterboro Airport (Teterboro) to Nantucket Memorial Airport (Nantucket)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides an iconic view of the Manhattan skyline shortly after departure and offers the most scenic perspectives of the coastal islands including Block Island and Martha's Vineyard.
Manhattan Skyline
Depending on the departure path, see the Empire State Building and One World Trade Center in the distance.
Gold Coast Estates
Aerial views of the massive 'Great Gatsby' style mansions along Long Island's North Shore.
Block Island
The teardrop-shaped island featuring the dramatic Mohegan Bluffs and two historic lighthouses.
Martha's Vineyard
A full view of the island's diverse landscape, including the colorful clay cliffs of Aquinnah.
Nantucket Harbor
On final approach, see the horseshoe-shaped harbor, Brant Point Light, and the iconic grey-shingled houses.
This is the 'money side' for this route. For the best experience, book an early morning flight to see the sun rising over the Atlantic. Ensure your window is clear, as the approach over Martha's Vineyard into Nantucket is one of the most scenic in the Northeast.
Connecticut Coastline
Panoramic views of coastal cities like Stamford, Bridgeport, and the historic New Haven harbor.
Yale University
Spot the Gothic architecture of the Yale campus and the distinct layout of the New Haven Green.
Mystic Seaport
View the famous maritime museum and the historic wooden ships docked along the Mystic River.
Watch Hill
Look for the grand Ocean House hotel and the exclusive beaches of the Rhode Island shore.
Sit on the left if you are flying during the late afternoon to avoid the direct southern sun glare. This side is excellent for spotting the Thimble Islands near Branford, which look like tiny green dots in the Sound.
