Atlanta Skylines
Clear views of the Downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead skyscraper clusters shortly after takeoff from ATL.
Stone Mountain
A massive quartz monzonite dome that is one of the most recognizable geological features in Georgia.
Lake Lanier
A sprawling reservoir with a complex, jagged shoreline visible to the north of the flight path.
Blue Ridge Mountains
The rolling blue-tinted peaks of the southern Appalachian chain visible on the horizon.
Paris Mountain
A prominent monadnock located just north of Greenville that stands out during the final descent.
For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, perfectly illuminating the Atlanta skyline and the mountain ridges to the north.
