Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Minneapolis to Buenos Aires. While takeoff offers some local interest, the landing approach over the Río de la Plata and final descent into the pampas provides more dramatic and geographically distinctive views. The contrast between the wide estuary and the flat landscape beyond is the most visually compelling segment of this route.

During takeoff from Minneapolis St Paul International (MSP), sit on the Right side for the best views. MSP typically departs to the north or northeast. Right-side seats offer views of the Minnesota River valley and the transition from Twin Cities urban sprawl into the agricultural landscape of central Minnesota, which provides better visual continuity during climb-out. Notable sights include: Minnesota River valley (immediate south), Mississippi River confluence (visible during initial climb), Twin Cities metropolitan area (Minneapolis-St Paul urban grid receding westward), Chain of Lakes district (southwest of downtown Minneapolis).

When landing at Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE), sit on the Left side for the best views. Approaching EZE from the north typically uses runways aligned roughly east-west. Left-side seats provide views of the Río de la Plata estuary, the approach path over the water, and the distinctive flat pampas landscape surrounding Buenos Aires. This offers better perspective on the final descent and the geography defining the approach corridor. Notable sights include: Río de la Plata estuary (wide, muddy-brown water body), Ezeiza airport runways and taxiways (geometric concrete patterns), Buenos Aires urban sprawl (low-rise residential and industrial districts), Pampas grassland (flat, featureless terrain extending to the horizon).

The flight from Minneapolis St Paul International (MSP) to Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE) takes Approximately 9.5 to 10.5 hours.

The flight path crosses the central United States (Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana), then the Gulf of Mexico, and continues south over the Yucatan Peninsula and Caribbean before reaching South America. Notable features include the Mississippi River delta (visible during the southern U.S. portion), the Gulf of Mexico (featureless water for several hours), and the northern coast of South America (Colombia/Venezuela region) before reaching Argentina. The Andes Mountains are too far west to be visible from this direct routing.
