Chugach Mountains
Immediately after takeoff, view the rugged, snow-capped peaks and hanging glaciers bordering Anchorage.
St. Elias Range
Home to Mount Logan and some of the world's largest non-polar icefields and valley glaciers.
Cascade Volcanoes
A spectacular lineup including Mount Rainier, Mount Adams, and Mount Hood during the mid-flight cruise.
Crater Lake
The deep blue waters of the caldera are often visible while crossing the Oregon-California border.
Great Basin
The transition into Nevada reveals the stark beauty of 'Basin and Range' topography.
Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the glaciers and volcanoes perfectly. In winter, the entire route is a continuous white wilderness. Keep a map app open to identify specific volcanic peaks as you pass Washington and Oregon.

Oregon Coast
Watch the white surf break against the cliffs of the Pacific shoreline for hundreds of miles.
Sierra Nevada

Las Vegas Strip
Depending on the landing pattern, the right side often gets a direct view of the neon-lit hotels and the Sphere.
The right side is superior for sunset flights, offering golden hour views over the Pacific Ocean. On the final descent into LAS, the right side is more likely to provide a clear view of the Strip if the aircraft is landing from the north.
