Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Punta Arenas to Buenos Aires. While the takeoff offers dramatic coastal and strait scenery, the landing approach provides more visually distinctive urban and estuary views. Right-side seats capture the Río de la Plata and Buenos Aires cityscape on descent, which is more memorable than the relatively sparse Patagonian landscape on departure.

During takeoff from Carlos Ibanez Del Campo International (PUQ), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side offers views of the Strait of Magellan and the rugged Magallanes region as the aircraft climbs northward. The right side faces inland toward relatively featureless steppe terrain. Notable sights include: Strait of Magellan, Tierra del Fuego coastline, Darwin Range foothills, Punta Arenas city grid.

When landing at Aeroparque Jorge Newbery (AEP), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side provides views of the Río de la Plata estuary and the Buenos Aires metropolitan area during descent. The left side faces the open Atlantic and offers less distinctive scenery on approach. Notable sights include: Río de la Plata estuary, Buenos Aires city sprawl, Paraná River delta, Aeroparque Jorge Newbery airport.

The flight from Carlos Ibanez Del Campo International (PUQ) to Aeroparque Jorge Newbery (AEP) takes 4h 15m.

The flight path crosses the Patagonian steppe and approaches the Atlantic coast near Bahía Blanca, then follows the coastline northward. Notable features include the vast, treeless Patagonian plateau (relatively featureless from altitude), the Colorado River valley, and eventually the Paraná River delta system as the aircraft descends toward Buenos Aires. The Andes Mountains remain far to the west and are not visible from this route.
