Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Montreal to Toronto. While takeoff favors the right for Laurentian views, the landing approach provides superior geography: Lake Ontario and the Scarborough Bluffs are more visually distinctive than the St Lawrence departure. The left side captures the most dramatic feature of this route.

During takeoff from St Hubert (YHU), sit on the Right side for the best views. St Hubert typically departs eastbound (Runway 06/24 orientation). Right-side seats face north initially, offering views of the St Lawrence River and the Laurentian Mountains beyond Montreal. Left seats see the developed suburbs and industrial areas south of the airport. Notable sights include: St Lawrence River (immediate north), Laurentian Mountains (northern horizon), Montreal urban sprawl (south and west), Île Perrot (northwest).

When landing at Buttonville Muni (YKZ), sit on the Left side for the best views. Buttonville typically uses Runway 15/33 (northeast-southwest orientation). Left-side seats during approach from the west will face north, providing views of Lake Ontario's north shore, the Greater Toronto Area's urban pattern, and the Scarborough Bluffs. Right seats see inland suburban sprawl. Notable sights include: Lake Ontario (north), Scarborough Bluffs (northeast), Toronto skyline (west), Don River valley (west-southwest).

The flight from St Hubert (YHU) to Buttonville Muni (YKZ) takes Approximately 45-55 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Greater Toronto Area's urban corridor. Notable features include the Oak Ridges Moraine (visible as subtle topographic relief northeast of Toronto), the Don River valley, and the transition from the St Lawrence Lowlands to the Oak Ridges terrain. Lake Simcoe lies to the north of the direct track but may be visible on clear days from altitude. The Niagara Escarpment is south of the direct route but occasionally visible as a subtle ridge line on the southern horizon during westbound cruise.
