Home of the Patriots and the Revolution in Foxborough, with a lighthouse tower at one end. Look for the stadium and its shopping strip along Route 1, among woods.
3 of our routes pass it. Massachusetts
The easy pick
Orlando to Boston: sit on the left, on the way down.
Which side, by route
| Route | Side | When |
|---|---|---|
| Indianapolis to Boston | Right (the left side is better for the whole flight) | on the way down |
| Orlando to Boston | Left | on the way down |
| San Juan to Boston | Right (the left side is better for the whole flight) | on the way down |
From the real paths of every nonstop on these routes in the last 10 days, at the usual time of day. Where the best seat for the whole flight is on the other side, you'd trade this sight for more elsewhere.
