Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side of the aircraft offers the most iconic landmarks, including the Toronto skyline and Niagara Falls, shortly after departure.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Toronto Skyline

A stunning view of the CN Tower and downtown Toronto skyscrapers immediately after takeoff from YYZ.

🌊

Niagara Falls

The mist and the horseshoe curve of the world-famous falls are visible about 10 minutes into the flight.

⛴️

Buffalo Waterfront

The industrial and revitalized harbor area where Lake Erie meets the Niagara River.

🌅

Lake Erie Shoreline

The expansive blue waters of the Great Lake contrasting with the urban developments of the coast.

🏙️

Cleveland Cityscape

Distant views of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Cleveland's downtown core during the mid-flight cruise.

Book a window seat on the port side for the best chance to see Niagara Falls. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, providing excellent lighting for photos of the Toronto skyline. Watch the ground about 8-12 minutes after takeoff to spot the Niagara River gorge.

Right Side Highlights
6.2
✈️

Mississauga Urban Sprawl

Intricate highway interchanges and the dense suburban layout of the Greater Toronto Area.

⛰️

Niagara Escarpment

The geological ridge that runs through Ontario, visible as a distinct forested rise in the landscape.

🚢

Welland Canal

The series of locks and channels used by massive freighter ships to bypass Niagara Falls.

🌽

Ohio Farmland

A peaceful view of the geometric agricultural patterns that define the approach into Central Ohio.

The starboard side is ideal for travelers who want to avoid direct sunlight during afternoon flights south. It offers a great perspective of the Niagara Escarpment's natural beauty. Keep an eye out for the Welland Canal; the massive ships in the locks are a unique sight from 30,000 feet.
