Exeter to Buenos Aires is 6,794 miles (10,935 km), a flight of about 11 hours 15 minutes.
Exeter departure on left provides immediate dramatic views of Exmoor and the Bristol Channel. While the landing favors right seats, the 11-hour flight path crosses the Atlantic with minimal visual interest for most of the journey. The takeoff experience is superior.
Flight Path
The flight path crosses the Atlantic Ocean for roughly 9 hours with no significant landmarks visible—only open ocean, occasional cloud formations, and the curvature of the Earth at altitude. The route passes south of Ireland and the UK, then over the mid-Atlantic with no islands in the direct path. As the aircraft approaches South America, the Brazilian coast becomes visible around 2 hours before landing, but the approach to Buenos Aires focuses on the Río de la Plata estuary and the flat pampas terrain of Argentina.
