Same on the return since the morning sun usually hits the left side of the aircraft after flying through the night. IAD to GIG, I will sit on the right hand side and GIG-IAD I'll be on the left hand side. LAX-MIA I sit on the left hand side and MIA-LAX, I'm on the right hand side. I don't recall this topic being discussed on other threads. I wonder if other FT'ers besides me take into consideration which side the sun is on when deciding where to sit on their flights?
