AGU → DFW
Which side of the plane to sit from Jesús Terán Paredo International Airport (Aguascalientes) to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (Dallas-Fort Worth)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic Sierra Madre Oriental peaks early in the flight and offers iconic views of the Dallas skyline upon the standard approach into DFW.
Sierra Madre Oriental
Stunning limestone peaks and deep canyons stretching north from Saltillo.
Monterrey-Saltillo Corridor
The dense urban and industrial sprawl nestled between massive mountain ranges.
The Rio Grande
The winding international border river cutting through the arid brushland.
Texas Hill Country
The transition into the lush green rolling hills and lakes of Central Texas.
Dallas Skyline
A perfect view of the Reunion Tower and downtown skyscrapers during the final descent.
A morning flight is ideal to have the sun behind you while viewing the mountains. The right side is typically better for seeing the Dallas skyline if the airport is landing to the south.
Zacatecas High Plateau
Rugged semi-arid terrain and historic silver mining regions visible shortly after takeoff.
Bolson de Mapimi
The vast, silent expanse of the Mapimi Basin desert wilderness in northern Mexico.
Texas Wind Farms
Massive clusters of white wind turbines dotting the landscape near the border.
Fort Worth Skyline
A view of the 'Cowtown' skyscrapers if the plane approaches DFW from the west.
Book a late afternoon flight to see the desert landscape bathed in golden hour light. Keep an eye out for the distinct geometric patterns of the West Texas oil fields as you cross the border.
