Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Amsterdam to Buenos Aires. Right side wins at both ends of the flight. At takeoff you get Amsterdam's canal ring and the IJ waterway; at landing you get the Rio de la Plata and the Buenos Aires city grid. The right side is the clear choice for the full journey.

During takeoff from Schiphol (AMS), sit on the Right side for the best views. Schiphol typically departs southwest on runway 18R/24 or northwest on 36C/36R. A southwesterly departure on 18R puts Amsterdam city center and the IJ waterway on the right side, with the historic canal ring and the port of Amsterdam clearly visible during climb-out. The flat Dutch polder landscape with its characteristic rectangular water channels stretches out on the right. Notable sights include: Amsterdam canal ring (UNESCO heritage grid visible from above), IJ waterway and Amsterdam port, Westpoort industrial harbor, flat polder fields with drainage ditches south of the city.

When landing at Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE), sit on the Right side for the best views. Ezeiza typically lands on runway 11 (eastward approach from the west) or runway 29 (westward approach). On the common runway 11 approach from the west, the right side faces north toward Buenos Aires city, with the Rio de la Plata estuary visible as a vast brown expanse beyond the city grid. The dense urban sprawl of Greater Buenos Aires and the distinctive wide brown river are the dominant features. Notable sights include: Rio de la Plata estuary (one of the widest rivers in the world, visibly brown from sediment), Buenos Aires urban grid extending to the riverbank, Riachuelo river mouth at La Boca district, flat Pampas grassland stretching west under the aircraft.

The flight from Schiphol (AMS) to Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE) takes Approximately 13 to 14 hours.

The route typically tracks southwest over France and the Bay of Biscay, then crosses the Atlantic over the open ocean for the majority of the flight. The equatorial crossing occurs over the central Atlantic with no land visible. The route then approaches South America over northeastern Brazil, crossing the Amazon basin (visible as dense dark green canopy with river meanders if flying in daylight), then tracks south over the Brazilian interior and the Cerrado savanna before descending over the flat Pampas of Argentina toward Buenos Aires.
