UVF → ATL
Which side of the plane to sit from Hewanorra International Airport (Hewandorra) to Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport (Atlanta)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the volcanic peaks of the Caribbean archipelago during departure and the scenic marshlands of the Georgia coast during the descent.
The Pitons
An iconic view of Saint Lucia's majestic twin volcanic spires shortly after lifting off from Hewanorra.
Leeward Islands
A distant parade of the Lesser Antilles, including Martinique and Dominica, visible during the initial climb.
Abaco Islands
Stunning aerial perspectives of the northern Bahamian cays and their surrounding barrier reefs.
Savannah River
The winding border between South Carolina and Georgia, characterized by vast salt marshes and historic waterways.
Georgia Piedmont
The rolling green hills and dense pine forests of the American Southeast during the final stages of flight.
The right side is essential for the first 20 minutes of flight to capture the volcanic geography of Saint Lucia. For the best photography of the Bahamas' shallow reefs, a morning flight provides the optimal sun angle to eliminate glare on the water.
Caribbean Deep
Breathtaking views of the transition from the deep Atlantic blue to the bright turquoise of the Caribbean basins.
Andros Island
The largest island in the Bahamas, featuring the intricate patterns of the Bight of Andros and vast tidal flats.
Florida Gold Coast
Distant views of the high-rise skylines of Miami and Fort Lauderdale if the flight path tracks near the coast.
Atlanta Metro
A sprawling view of the 'City in a Forest' as the aircraft maneuvers for its final approach into Hartsfield-Jackson.
Choose the left side for afternoon departures to witness a spectacular sunset over the Gulf of Mexico as you approach the US mainland. During descent, look for the unique circular patterns of suburban developments in the Georgia Piedmont.
