Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Hewandorra to Charlotte. Left side wins both ends of the flight — the Pitons at departure are one of the most dramatic aerial views in the Caribbean, and the Charlotte skyline on approach is the best visual payoff at arrival. The left side also tracks the eastern Caribbean island chain during initial climb, with Martinique visible to the north.

During takeoff from Hewanorra International (UVF), sit on the Left side for the best views. Hewanorra's runway 10/28 means departures heading northwest will bank left, putting the volcanic peaks of the Pitons and the mountainous spine of St. Lucia on the left side. The dramatic twin Pitons — Gros Piton and Petit Piton — rise sharply from the southwest coast and are unmistakable from the air during climb-out. Notable sights include: Gros Piton and Petit Piton (volcanic spires on southwest coast), the forested central ridge of St. Lucia, Marigot Bay on the leeward coast, the Caribbean Sea stretching west toward Martinique.

When landing at Charlotte Douglas International (CLT), sit on the Left side for the best views. Charlotte Douglas typically uses runways 18L/18R or 23 for arrivals from the south, meaning the aircraft approaches from the south-southwest. The left side gets the Charlotte city skyline and uptown district as the plane descends over the southern suburbs, while the right side faces away toward less distinctive terrain. Notable sights include: Charlotte uptown skyline (Bank of America Tower and surrounding high-rises), Lake Norman to the north visible in the distance during approach, the Catawba River corridor west of the city, I-85 and I-77 interchange visible below during final approach.

The flight from Hewanorra International (UVF) to Charlotte Douglas International (CLT) takes Approximately 4 hours 15 minutes to 4 hours 45 minutes.

After departing St. Lucia, the flight tracks north over Martinique and Dominica before crossing Puerto Rico and Hispaniola. Over the open Atlantic and then the Bahamas chain, Grand Bahama Island is visible before crossing the Florida coastline near Jacksonville or the Georgia coast. The flight then tracks northwest over the Carolinas piedmont, crossing the Appalachian foothills of upstate South Carolina before descending into Charlotte.
