Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from David to Panama. While the takeoff offers mountain scenery on the right, the landing approach provides more dramatic and iconic views of the Panama Canal and Panama City skyline on the left. The canal crossing is the highlight of this short route.

During takeoff from Enrique Malek International (DAV), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer views of the Serranía del Darién mountain range as the aircraft climbs eastward from David. The terrain rises dramatically inland, creating a striking contrast with the coastal plains below. Notable sights include: Serranía del Darién (inland mountains), Chiriquí Lagoon (west of David), Coastal plains of western Panama, Caribbean Sea horizon.

When landing at Marcos A Gelabert International (PAC), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views during descent into Panama City, with clear sightlines of the Panama Canal approach, the Bridge of the Americas, and the city's skyline against the Pacific. The aircraft descends from the west, making the left side ideal. Notable sights include: Panama Canal (Gatun Locks and approach channel), Bridge of the Americas, Panama City skyline, Pacific coastline and bay.

The flight from Enrique Malek International (DAV) to Marcos A Gelabert International (PAC) takes Approximately 1 hour.

The flight path crosses central Panama's interior, passing over the Cordillera Central mountain range and transitioning from the Caribbean-facing western highlands to the Pacific-facing central isthmus. The terrain gradually shifts from the forested mountains near David to lower, more developed areas as the aircraft approaches Panama City. The Gatun Lake region (part of the canal system) becomes visible during descent into the Panama City area.
