Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Buenos Aires to Chicago. While takeoff offers interesting estuary views, the landing approach to O'Hare provides more dramatic and recognizable scenery—Lake Michigan and Chicago's iconic skyline are far more visually striking than the flat Buenos Aires departure.

During takeoff from Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left seats offer views of the Río de la Plata estuary and Buenos Aires' urban sprawl as the aircraft climbs northwestward. You'll see the wide, murky waters of the estuary and the city's grid pattern receding below. Notable sights include: Río de la Plata estuary, Buenos Aires metropolitan area, Paraná River delta (visible as the estuary widens northward).

When landing at Chicago Ohare International (ORD), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right seats provide excellent views during the approach to O'Hare. You'll see Lake Michigan's shoreline, Chicago's downtown skyline, and the grid of the city spreading inland from the lake as you descend from the northeast. Notable sights include: Lake Michigan, Chicago downtown skyline and Loop district, Chicago's grid street pattern extending westward, Illinois prairie and suburban sprawl.

The flight from Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE) to Chicago Ohare International (ORD) takes Approximately 10 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Atlantic Ocean for roughly 5,000 nautical miles with no significant landmarks visible mid-ocean. After crossing the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, the aircraft passes over the Yucatan Peninsula (visible as a low, flat landmass with cenotes and limestone features), then continues north over the Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi River delta (visible as a brown, branching network of channels and sediment plumes), before turning northeast toward Chicago. The Mississippi River itself becomes visible as a dark, meandering line through the American Midwest during the final descent phase.
