Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Philadelphia to Montreal. The takeoff views from Philadelphia are more visually distinctive and varied than the landing approach. While the St. Lawrence River is impressive on descent, the Delaware River and Philadelphia's urban geography offer more character during climb-out.

During takeoff from Philadelphia International (PHL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side offers views of the Delaware River and the urban grid of Philadelphia as you climb out, with the Schuylkill River visible to the west. Right side faces inland toward less distinctive terrain. Notable sights include: Delaware River, Philadelphia skyline and downtown district, Schuylkill River, suburban sprawl extending northwest.

When landing at St Hubert (YHU), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side provides views of the St. Lawrence River and the Montreal urban area as you descend into St. Hubert. The river is a dominant visual feature during final approach, and the city's layout becomes increasingly visible on the right bank. Notable sights include: St. Lawrence River, Montreal skyline and downtown core, Mount Royal (visible as a forested hill), suburban development across the island of Montreal.

The flight from Philadelphia International (PHL) to St Hubert (YHU) takes 1h 25m.

Hudson River valley and New York metropolitan area (if visible during cruise), Catskill Mountains to the northwest, transition from mid-Atlantic urban corridor to northeastern forests, Lake Champlain region approaching Vermont-New York border, Adirondack foothills to the north
