The approach offers a breathtaking perspective of the turquoise lagoon at Emily Bay and the UNESCO World Heritage-listed convict ruins at Kingston.
The right side is the prime choice for this route, offering a spectacular perspective of the vibrant, red-hued Phillip Island and the historic Kingston ruins during the final approach.
The left side provides the most iconic views of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge shortly after takeoff from SYD, plus a better chance to see Lord Howe Island mid-flight.
