Berlin Cityscape
Immediate views of Berlin's urban center and the TV Tower if departing towards the west.
Iceberg Alley
As you approach Newfoundland, look down for massive icebergs drifting in the Labrador Current.
NYC & Long Island
On clear days, the distinct silhouette of Manhattan and the sandy reaches of Long Island are visible.
Outer Banks
The thin, golden barrier islands of North Carolina provide a stunning contrast against the deep blue sea.
Kennedy Space Center
Views of the launch pads at Cape Canaveral as the flight tracks south along the Florida coast.
Miami Beach
Stunning aerial views of the high-rises and neon-blue waters of South Beach during final approach.
The left side avoids direct southern sun glare during the westward flight. To see the US coastline, check the flight path on your screen; if tracking just offshore, this side is prime for spotting cities like Boston and New York. The approach into MIA often involves a turn over the ocean, giving left-side passengers a panoramic view of the coastline.

The North Sea
Expansive views of the Dutch coastline and offshore wind farms shortly after departure.
Greenland Ice Cap
On more northerly routes, witness the jagged fjords and massive glaciers of Southern Greenland.
Canadian Maritimes
The rugged, forested landscapes of Nova Scotia and the Bay of Fundy's unique coastline.
Appalachian Foothills
Distant views of the rolling green ridges of the Eastern US mountain ranges.
The Everglades
As the plane aligns for landing, the vast, shimmering 'River of Grass' stretches to the western horizon.
The right side is essential if the flight takes a high-latitude Great Circle route, as it offers the only chance to see Greenland's ice sheets. Because this is a westward flight, you will 'chase the sun,' resulting in a very long afternoon; the right side will face the sun, so keep your window shade partially down to prevent cabin heat and glare.
