Okay maybe a strange question - Which side of the plane to sit on when flying from Miami to Belize? When you come into BZE for the first time, is there a better side for scenery?

MelissaAK,
sit on the right hand side of the plane, so that you can pick up the Yucatan coastline.

Or on the left you can see Cuba.

Well...that narrows it down! lol. Thanks! I'll let my husband pick.

Sit on the right side when you fly out to AC.

Stay on the IN SIDE!

I don't know....on Tropic Air, it might be fun to strap on a saddle and take in the sights on the way to the island from the outside.

MelissaAK, you are fitting right in with this bunch!

No joke here: On the Tropic flight ask the boarding crew (1 guy)or the Captain if you are your husband can sit in the seat next to the pilot. The "co-pilot" seat is open since there is none. Great view from the front!

As last resort try the "saddle". reaper will loan you a parachute!

We both work for a sea plane service so we have had many co pilot seat rides. My husband always wears our company's logo hat so we'll see how it goes. I'll have to scan a couple of the old photos of my husband waterskiing behind a seaplane and put them up here.

I can never see anything from the co-pilots seat...I guess I'm too short, and the dashboard is waaayyy too tall. I look out the side window, and that's OK, but I prefer the back seat, roomy, can see out both windows, and it isn't so stuffy. Just my humble opinion...
