Left side outbound will give (presuming normal wind/take-off patterns) a nice view of downtown Honolulu, Waikiki, Diamond Head, Hawaii Kai; then south side of Moloka`i, then a nice view of Maui, then the north Kohala coast on the Big Island.

Return sit right side for the same views, in reverse order.

However, if you sit opposite of these suggestions in one direction, you will also have a nice view of the island of Kaho`olawe and Lana`i.
