Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Denver to Miami. The right side wins overall because the MIA arrival over Biscayne Bay and the Florida Keys is one of the most visually spectacular approaches in the continental US. The takeoff view from the left is excellent but the landing view is more unique and sustained over a longer approach.

During takeoff from Denver International (DEN), sit on the Left side for the best views. DEN typically departs east or southeast on runways 16/17, meaning a left-side seat faces northeast and then swings to look back west toward the Front Range. As the aircraft climbs and banks southeast, the left side gets a clear view of the Rocky Mountain Front Range including Longs Peak and the Denver metro grid below. Notable sights include: Rocky Mountain Front Range, Longs Peak, Denver city grid, Cherry Creek Reservoir.

When landing at Miami International (MIA), sit on the Right side for the best views. MIA typically lands from the east on runway 09, meaning the approach comes in over Biscayne Bay from the Atlantic side. Right-side seats face south toward the Florida Keys chain and the shallow turquoise waters of Biscayne Bay, while the left side looks north over suburban Miami sprawl. Notable sights include: Biscayne Bay, Florida Keys chain, Miami Beach barrier island, Port of Miami.
