About This Route

Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Lester B Pearson International (YYZ) to Daniel Oduber Quiros International (LIR)?

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Toronto to Liberia. The left side delivers the more memorable single moment of the flight — Toronto's skyline and Lake Ontario on departure — and also captures the Gulf of Mexico coastline and Cuban terrain during the cruise portion as the route tracks south-southwest. The right side has a slight edge only on landing approach. For the full journey, left wins on aggregate.

What can I see during takeoff from Lester B Pearson International in Toronto?

The right side faces suburban sprawl toward Brampton and Mississauga with far less visual interest. Notable sights include: CN Tower and downtown Toronto skyline, Lake Ontario shoreline and Toronto Islands, Port Credit and Oakville waterfront to the southwest, Hamilton Harbour visible in the distance.
