Savannah River Basin
The winding river and the sprawling J. Strom Thurmond Lake are visible shortly after departing Augusta.
Sumter National Forest
Deep green expanses of South Carolina's pine forests dominate the mid-flight scenery.
Carowinds Theme Park
Located directly on the state line, the tall roller coasters like Fury 325 are clear markers during descent.
Uptown Charlotte
A stunning view of the central business district's skyscrapers as the plane aligns with the north-south runways.
Sit on the left for the most dramatic entry into Charlotte. Since this flight is exceptionally short (often under 35 minutes in the air), skip the beverage service if it's offered to keep your window view unobstructed. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the Charlotte skyline perfectly.

Lake Murray
To the east, the massive reservoir near Columbia can be seen reflecting the sun on clear days.
Catawba River
The primary waterway of the region, visible snaking through the Piedmont landscape.
Lake Wylie
A large, branched lake that the aircraft often flies directly over or alongside during the final approach.
Rock Hill Suburbs
Dense suburban development and sports complexes typical of the rapidly growing Charlotte metro area.
The right side is best for viewing the network of lakes and rivers that define the border between the Carolinas. For sunset flights, this side provides beautiful golden hour reflections off Lake Wylie, though you might miss the direct view of the Uptown buildings depending on the specific runway assignment.
