Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from West Palm Beach to Baltimore. While takeoff offers good coastal views on the right, the landing approach into BWI on the left provides more dramatic and varied scenery—the Chesapeake Bay, river estuary, and Appalachian foothills create a more visually interesting descent than the flat Florida takeoff.

During takeoff from Palm Beach International (PBI), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right seats offer the best views during the initial climb-out northward from PBI. You'll see the Atlantic coastline, barrier islands, and inland waterways of southeastern Florida as the aircraft gains altitude and banks toward the northwest flight corridor to BWI. Notable sights include: Atlantic Ocean and barrier islands (immediate offshore), Lake Worth Lagoon and Intracoastal Waterway (inland waterway system), Miami metropolitan area sprawl (visible to the south and west as you climb), Florida's flat terrain and development pattern.

When landing at Baltimore Washington International (BWI), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left seats provide superior views during the descent and approach into BWI. You'll see the Patapsco River estuary, Baltimore Harbor, and the Chesapeake Bay as the aircraft descends from the northwest, plus urban Baltimore and surrounding Appalachian foothills. Notable sights include: Chesapeake Bay (large body of water dominating the approach corridor), Patapsco River and Baltimore Harbor (where the river meets the bay), Appalachian foothills and ridge lines (visible to the west and northwest), Baltimore city grid and Inner Harbor development.

The flight from Palm Beach International (PBI) to Baltimore Washington International (BWI) takes Approximately 3 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path northwestward from PBI crosses central Florida's interior (mostly flat, lakes, and vegetation), then enters Georgia and the Carolinas where the terrain begins to show gentle rolling hills. The Appalachian Mountains become increasingly visible as you approach the Mid-Atlantic region. The flight passes generally west of the Atlantic coastline, so ocean views are limited to the initial climb-out. Major cities visible along the route include Jacksonville area (if passing nearby), and various Carolina piedmont cities. The Chesapeake Bay becomes prominent in the final descent phase into BWI.
