Newark to Hewandorra is 2,026 miles (3,261 km), a flight of about 5 hours.
While takeoff favors the left, the landing approach on the right provides the most dramatic and memorable scenery—the Pitons are among the Caribbean's most iconic landmarks and are genuinely spectacular from this altitude and angle. The right side captures the visual highlight of the entire flight.
Flight Path
The flight path crosses the Atlantic Ocean southeastward. Notable waypoints include passage over or near Bermuda (depending on exact routing), then open ocean for the majority of the journey. As the aircraft approaches the Lesser Antilles, Dominica and Martinique may be visible to the north and west respectively during the final descent phase. The Windward Islands chain becomes visible in the final 30-45 minutes of flight, with Saint Lucia appearing as a small, mountainous island with distinctive volcanic topography.
