Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Lima to Houston. While the takeoff offers dramatic Andes and Pacific views, the landing approach over Galveston Bay and the Houston Ship Channel provides more visually distinctive industrial and coastal scenery. Right seats capture both the natural bay system and the engineered waterway infrastructure that defines the approach corridor.

During takeoff from Jorge Chavez International (LIM), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side offers immediate views of the Andes foothills and the Pacific coastline south of Lima. The aircraft departs northwestward over the ocean, so left seats capture the dramatic transition from coastal desert to mountain terrain. Notable sights include: Pacific Ocean coastline, Andes Mountains (eastern horizon), Lima urban sprawl, Callao port district.

When landing at Ellington Fld (EFD), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right seats provide views of the Texas Gulf Coast, Galveston Bay, and the Houston Ship Channel during approach. The aircraft descends from the southeast over Galveston Bay before turning inland toward Ellington Field, making right-side views superior for coastal and industrial waterway scenery. Notable sights include: Galveston Bay, Texas Gulf Coast, Houston Ship Channel, Galveston Island barrier island.

The flight from Jorge Chavez International (LIM) to Ellington Fld (EFD) takes 5h 15m.

Gulf of Mexico open water (no major landmarks visible at cruise altitude), Yucatan Peninsula distant to the south (not directly on flight path), transition from tropical Pacific waters to Gulf of Mexico basin, Louisiana and Texas coastlines approach from the north
