YYZ → LIM
Which side of the plane to sit from Lester B. Pearson International Airport (Toronto) to Jorge Chávez International Airport (Lima)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior for this southward journey as it provides a front-row seat to the sunrise over the Caribbean, the vibrant skylines of Panama City, and the majestic, snow-capped peaks of the Andes Mountains as you descend toward Peru.
