Which side of the plane to sit from Domingo Faustino Sarmiento Airport (San Juan) to Jorge Newbery Airpark (Buenos Aires)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior view of the Buenos Aires skyline and the bustling port area during the final approach into Aeroparque Jorge Newbery.
Pre-Cordillera Foothills
Distant views of the rugged Andean foothills and the San Juan river valley during the initial climb.
Sierra de las Quijadas
The edge of the red-rock national park may be visible in the distance across the San Luis plains.
Buenos Aires Skyline
A spectacular view of the 'Paris of the South' featuring the skyscrapers of Retiro and the downtown core.
Puerto Madero & Port
Clear views of the modern waterfront district and the massive container ships docked at the Port of Buenos Aires.
This side is essential for the iconic city approach. If landing from the north, you will fly parallel to the coast, offering a perfect view of the Obelisk and downtown. Afternoon flights provide golden hour lighting on the city's glass towers.
San Juan Vineyards
Vibrant green vineyard patches contrasting against the arid desert landscape immediately after takeoff.
Pampa Húmeda
The vast, flat agricultural heartland of Argentina with its characteristic checkerboard fields.
Paraná Delta
A massive network of subtropical islands and brown river branches where the Paraná meets the Río de la Plata.
Northern Suburbs
Aerial views of the upscale northern districts and the iconic River Plate stadium during the descent.
Observe the dramatic transition from the desert of San Juan to the lush greenery of the Delta. Morning flights offer the best clarity for seeing the intricate waterway patterns before landing.
