Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior vantage point for the St. Lawrence River corridor, the city of Montreal, and the iconic Confederation Bridge during the approach to Prince Edward Island.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Toronto Skyline

Immediate views of the CN Tower and Lake Ontario shoreline upon departure from Pearson.

🌊

St. Lawrence River

A long-duration view of the massive waterway that serves as the gateway to the Atlantic.

🏢

Montreal Cityscape

Panoramic views of Mount Royal and the dense urban core of Quebec's largest city.

🌉

Confederation Bridge

The world's longest bridge over ice-covered water, visible during the final descent into YYG.

🏖️

Red Sandstone Cliffs

The signature crimson coastline and rolling green hills of the north and west PEI shores.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and for the best angle of the Confederation Bridge on arrival. Watch for the change in water color as you cross from the mainland to the island's unique red-tinted soil. Sit ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the bridge.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
💧

Lake Ontario

Expansive views of the Great Lake's deep blue waters and the busy shipping lanes early in the flight.

🌲

New Brunswick Forests

Vast stretches of dense Atlantic forest and winding river systems through the Maritimes region.

🌊

Bay of Fundy

On clear days, catch a glimpse of the distant bay known for the highest tides in the world to the south.

🚢

Northumberland Strait

The narrow body of water separating the island from the Canadian mainland.

🌾

Island Farmland

The picturesque patchwork of potato fields and rural landscapes on the south side of PEI.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to see the sun reflecting off the Northumberland Strait. Keep an eye out for the distinctive curved coastline of Nova Scotia visible on the horizon to the south. During autumn, this side offers excellent views of the changing foliage in New Brunswick.
