Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Pittsburgh (pennsylva) to Newark. The left side wins at both ends of this short eastbound flight. Pittsburgh's three-rivers confluence on departure and the Manhattan skyline with New York Harbor on approach make the left side the clear choice for the entire roughly 55-minute flight.

During takeoff from Pittsburgh International (PIT), sit on the Left side for the best views. PIT's primary departure runway 28R sends aircraft westward before turning east, and a left-side seat captures the downtown Pittsburgh skyline, the confluence of the three rivers (Allegheny, Monongahela, Ohio), and the city's distinctive topography as the plane banks northeast. The Golden Triangle is clearly visible from the left side during the climbing turn. Notable sights include: Downtown Pittsburgh Golden Triangle, confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers forming the Ohio River, Point State Park, and the Monongahela River valley stretching southeast.

When landing at Newark Liberty International (EWR), sit on the Left side for the best views. EWR's primary arrival runways 22L/22R bring aircraft in from the northeast over Staten Island and New York Harbor, putting the Manhattan skyline, Upper New York Bay, and the Statue of Liberty on the left side. This is one of the most dramatic urban approaches in the world from the left seat. Notable sights include: Manhattan skyline, Upper New York Bay, Statue of Liberty on Liberty Island, Verrazano-Narrows Bridge.

The flight from Pittsburgh International (PIT) to Newark Liberty International (EWR) takes Approximately 55-65 minutes.

The flight crosses the Allegheny Mountains of central Pennsylvania, including the Allegheny Front ridge, then the Ridge and Valley province with its parallel folded ridges visible as long linear forested spines. The Susquehanna River is crossed near its broad meanders in central Pennsylvania. The New Jersey Highlands and Watchung Mountains are visible on descent into EWR.
