TTNMCO

Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side of the aircraft offers a stunning continuous panorama of the Atlantic coastline, barrier islands, and iconic space-related landmarks as you descend into Florida.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🌊

Delaware Bay

The expansive estuary separating New Jersey and Delaware is visible shortly after departure from TTN.

🏖️

The Outer Banks

Look for the thin, fragile ribbons of sand making up the NC barrier islands, including Cape Hatteras.

⚓

Charleston Harbor

The historic South Carolina waterfront and the massive Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge are clearly visible.

🚢

Jacksonville Coastline

View the mouth of the St. Johns River and the bustling port facilities of northern Florida.

🚀

Kennedy Space Center

On a clear day, the massive Vehicle Assembly Building and launch pads are visible near Cape Canaveral.

Sit on the left for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the Atlantic, though glare can be intense. This side is superior for coastal enthusiasts and those hoping to spot the launch pads at Cape Canaveral during the descent into Orlando. Keep your window shade down during cruise if the sun is high to stay cool, then open it as you cross the Georgia-Florida border.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🏙️

Philadelphia Skyline

Immediately after takeoff from TTN, the skyscrapers of downtown Philly appear to the southwest.

🏛️

Mid-Atlantic Corridor

Aerial views of the urban sprawl between Baltimore and Washington D.C. are often visible in the distance.

🌲

Piedmont Plateau

Rolling green hills and dense forests of Virginia and North Carolina dominate the mid-flight view.

🐊

Okefenokee Swamp

A vast, dark expanse of wetlands near the Georgia-Florida border providing a unique texture to the landscape.

🎢

Orlando Theme Parks

During the final approach into MCO, you can often spot the icons of Walt Disney World and Universal Studios.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the interior United States. It offers better views of the Orlando theme park complexes on most standard landing patterns from the north. If you prefer land-based geography and urban clusters over water, this is your side.
