Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Buenos Aires to Montevideo. While takeoff offers good Buenos Aires views on the right, the landing approach on the left provides more sustained and dramatic geography—the Río de la Plata crossing, Cerro's distinctive topography, and Montevideo's coastal character. The left side captures the most visually interesting portion of this short regional flight.

During takeoff from Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE), sit on the Right side for the best views. EZE typically departs runway 09 (westbound) or 27 (eastbound). Right-side seats offer views of the Río de la Plata estuary and the sprawling Buenos Aires metropolitan area during initial climb. The river's muddy brown waters and the contrast with urban development create the most distinctive visual. Notable sights include: Río de la Plata (immediate south and east), Buenos Aires urban grid extending northwest, Aeroparque Jorge Newbery (smaller airport visible on the river's north bank), Tigre Delta wetlands (northeast, visible as green channels).

When landing at Carrasco International (MVD), sit on the Left side for the best views. Approaching MVD typically uses runway 26 or 08. Left-side seats during descent offer views of the Río de la Plata's northern shore, Montevideo's coastal development, and the distinctive Cerro hill. The approach path crosses the estuary, giving sustained views of the water and city skyline. Notable sights include: Río de la Plata (dominant throughout descent), Cerro (Montevideo's prominent hill, visible as elevated terrain on the city's west side), Montevideo's Old City and port district (visible as dense development along the coast), Carrasco neighborhood and airport approach corridor (eastern suburbs).

The flight from Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE) to Carrasco International (MVD) takes Approximately 50-55 minutes.

The flight crosses the Río de la Plata estuary at roughly its widest point (approximately 35 miles wide at this latitude). Midway through the crossing, no significant landmarks are visible—only the muddy-brown estuary waters below. The flight path remains over open water with no islands or notable features. The transition from Buenos Aires airspace to Uruguayan airspace occurs over the estuary. On clear days, the far shore (Uruguayan coast) becomes visible as a thin line on the horizon approximately 20 minutes into the flight.
