YYZBNA

Our Recommendation
7.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the major urban centers along the route, including Columbus and Cincinnati, and provides a better perspective of the Niagara region shortly after takeoff.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Toronto Waterfront

Panoramic views of the CN Tower and the Lake Ontario shoreline immediately after departure from YYZ.

🌊

Lake Erie Crossing

A scenic transit across the central portion of the Great Lakes, separating Canada and the United States.

🏛️

Columbus Skyline

Clear views of Ohio's capital city, including the Scioto River and the downtown high-rises.

🌉

Cincinnati & Ohio River

Visuals of the historic bridges and the winding Ohio River that marks the border between Ohio and Kentucky.

🐎

Kentucky Bluegrass

Rolling green hills and the patchwork of horse farms characteristic of the region north of Tennessee.

Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun on the opposite side, reducing glare. Keep your eyes peeled roughly 10-15 minutes into the flight for a distant view of the Niagara Falls mist if the path tracks east.

Right Side Highlights
7.0
🏭

Greater Toronto Area

An aerial perspective of the industrial and residential sprawl of Mississauga and the Golden Horseshoe.

🎢

Sandusky & Cedar Point

On clear days, you may spot the peninsula of Lake Erie known for its world-famous amusement park.

🌳

Ohio Valley Plains

Expansive views of the American Midwest's agricultural heartland stretching toward Indiana.

🏞️

Cumberland River

The winding waterway that snakes through northern Tennessee as the aircraft begins its final descent.

🎸

Nashville Approach

Excellent views of the rolling Tennessee landscape and the outer Nashville suburbs during the landing sequence.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Midwest. On southern approaches into BNA, this side often gets a better view of the Nashville skyline during the final turn to the runway.
