This was a new visual for me. All my arrivals have come straight down the West coast, always staying over the sea, never making landfall till about Oistins/Miami Beach. I'm talking from 1970 till now, always out of JFK, or most recently MIA since AA has made it their Caribbean hub. Nowadays though, this route is a viable alternative to get back to Barbados out of Dubai, but man, I dislike transiting through Heathrow. I'll be there in April, so hoist a Banks and have some fishcakes till then, lol.
@@journeyswithj246 Flying from the UK I have only noticed arriving as described above. I saw a video where the flight crosses over land and thought that was odd. I have since seen numerous videos of both approaches. It just reminds me of getting home, that blast of hot air when you step outside to start your holiday.
Barbados, my second home. I sure miss it!❤
True, I've been back a week. I feel home sick again.
Very smooth landing

That is a very old flight path you described. It depends on traffic and weather, but the flight path shown here is common.
