Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides the most dramatic views of the Finger Lakes region during the cruise phase and a spectacular aerial panorama of the Chesapeake Bay and Baltimore Harbor during the final approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Lake Ontario

Immediate views of the deep blue waters of Lake Ontario after departing Toronto.

🍇

Finger Lakes Region

Aerial perspective of the long, narrow glacial lakes of Central New York, including Seneca and Cayuga.

🛶

Susquehanna River

Views of the wide, winding river as it carves through the Pennsylvania and Maryland landscape.

🦀

Chesapeake Bay

A stunning look at the northern reaches of the bay and the coastal wetlands during descent.

🏙️

Baltimore Inner Harbor

Close-up views of the National Aquarium and the downtown Baltimore skyline on final approach.

Sit behind the wing to ensure the Finger Lakes aren't obstructed. Morning flights are ideal for this side to see the sunlight glinting off the water of the Chesapeake. In winter, the frozen edges of the Great Lakes are a highlight.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
💦

Niagara Falls

On some departure patterns, the mist and scale of Niagara Falls can be spotted to the west.

🏔️

Allegheny Plateau

The rugged, forested terrain of the Appalachian mountain foothills in Pennsylvania.

🚜

Pennsylvania Farmland

The geometric patchwork of rural agriculture and Amish country visible mid-flight.

⚓

Port of Baltimore

Views of the massive shipping cranes and industrial maritime infrastructure near the airport.

Choose the right side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Appalachian Mountains. Keep a keen eye out shortly after takeoff for the distinctive white mist rising from Niagara Falls in the distance.
