Which side of the plane to sit from Greater Moncton International Airport (Moncton) to John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (Hamilton)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Appalachian mountain ranges, including the White and Adirondack Mountains, plus a spectacular panoramic view of the Toronto skyline across Lake Ontario during the descent.
New Brunswick Interior
Vast stretches of dense boreal forest and winding river systems typical of the Canadian Maritimes.
White Mountains
Views of Mount Washington and the rugged Presidential Range in New Hampshire.
Adirondack Park
The high peaks and pristine wilderness lakes of upstate New York.
Toronto Skyline
A stunning view of the CN Tower and downtown skyscrapers across the blue expanse of Lake Ontario.
Burlington Bay
The industrial heart of Hamilton and the Skyway Bridge as the plane aligns for its final approach.
Sit on the right for the best mountain scenery through New England and New York. The highlight is the view of Toronto across the lake; morning flights offer the clearest air and best light for photography of the skyline and the Adirondack peaks.
Petitcodiac River
Visible immediately after takeoff, known as the 'Chocolate River' for its unique brown silt and tidal bore.
Bay of Fundy
Aerial views of the massive tidal flats and rugged coastline between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
Green Mountains
The lush, rolling peaks of Vermont stretching south toward the Massachusetts border.
Niagara Falls
On a southerly approach to Hamilton, the massive falls and the mist plume are visible in the distance.
Niagara Escarpment
The dramatic ridge and vineyard-rich landscape of the Grimsby and Stoney Creek area.
Watch the Petitcodiac River immediately after takeoff for its distinct brown hue. For the best chance to see Niagara Falls, choose a seat behind the wing to avoid engine obstruction during the descent into Hamilton. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting for the Bay of Fundy coastline.
