Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side is preferred as it offers superior views of the Caribbean archipelago, including the turquoise waters of the Bahamas and distant silhouettes of the Lesser Antilles, while avoiding harsh morning glare on southbound flights.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
⛲

Niagara Falls

Visible in the distance to the southwest shortly after departing Lake Ontario's airspace.

🏝️

Bahamian Banks

Stunning contrast between the shallow turquoise coral reefs and the deep blue ocean trenches.

🌋

Lesser Antilles Chain

A sequential view of volcanic islands including St. Kitts, Montserrat, and Guadeloupe from a distance.

🚢

Gulf of Paria

Views of the industrial shipping lanes and the coastline of Venezuela across the Dragon's Mouth.

Sit on the right for the most iconic Caribbean views. During the descent, you may spot the coast of South America (Venezuela). For afternoon flights, be prepared for some sun glare; keep the window shade partially down until over the islands.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Toronto Skyline

Clear views of the CN Tower and the downtown core immediately after takeoff from YYZ.

🌊

Chesapeake Bay

The intricate network of inlets and bridges along the Maryland and Virginia coastlines.

🟦

The Sargasso Sea

Deep indigo hues of the open Atlantic Ocean during the mid-flight transit.

⛰️

Trinidad's Northern Range

Lush, jungle-covered mountains rising sharply from the Caribbean Sea as you descend.

Choose this side for morning departures to stay in the shade. It provides the best perspective of the Toronto shoreline and the rugged, uninhabited north coast of Trinidad during the final approach into Piarco.
