Which side of the plane to sit from Tampa International Airport (Tampa) to Trenton Mercer Airport (Trenton)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point of the Atlantic coastline, featuring barrier islands, the Chesapeake Bay, and the Delaware Bay throughout the ascent up the East Coast.
Golden Isles
The scenic marshes and islands of the Georgia coastline.
Charleston Harbor
Recognition of the historic South Carolina port and the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge.
Outer Banks
The iconic thin barrier islands of North Carolina extending into the Atlantic.
Chesapeake Bay
Aerial perspective of the massive estuary and the bridge-tunnel systems.
Atlantic City
On clear days, the boardwalk and casinos are visible as you cross the Delaware Bay.
The right side is best for coastal geography. Aim for an afternoon flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the coastline. Keep an eye out for the Cape Hatteras lighthouse if the route hugs the coast.
Tampa Metro
Views of the bay and downtown Tampa immediately after departure.
Ocala National Forest
Dense green canopy of one of Florida's oldest forests.
Capital Corridor
Distant views of the urban sprawl between Richmond and Washington D.C.
Philadelphia Skyline
Clear views of Center City's skyscrapers during the final approach.
Sit on the left for better cityscapes during the final 20 minutes of the flight. For morning flights, this side avoids the direct glare of the rising sun.
