Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior scenic experience, especially during the descent over the Long Island Sound and the beautiful Rhode Island coastline.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌲

Piney Woods

The transition from Central Texas to the dense, dark green forests of East Texas and Arkansas.

🚜

Arkansas Delta

Intricate agricultural patterns and flooded rice fields near the Mississippi River.

🏙️

NYC Metro

High-altitude views of the Atlantic coastline and the distant Manhattan skyline.

🌊

Long Island Sound

The vast maritime gateway separating the mainland from Long Island.

🌉

Narragansett Bay

The iconic bridges and islands of Rhode Island visible during the final minutes.

🏰

Newport Mansions

Historic coastal estates and yacht-filled harbors visible during the final approach.

The right side is essential for the Narragansett Bay approach. You will likely see the Pell Bridge and Newport's coastline clearly. For night flights, this side provides a brilliant view of the concentrated city lights along the Northeast Corridor.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Austin Skyline

Excellent views of the Frost Bank Tower and Lady Bird Lake if departing to the north.

🛣️

I-35 Corridor

Visual of the major interstate artery connecting Texas to the Midwest.

🌊

Mississippi River

A dramatic crossing of the continent's largest river system near the mid-point of the flight.

⛰️

Appalachian Ridges

Stunning views of the folded mountain topography through West Virginia and Pennsylvania.

🌳

Hudson Valley

Lush, rolling landscapes of upstate New York and Western Connecticut during the initial descent.

Select the left side for views of the Austin skyline during departure. This side is ideal for spotting the ridge-and-valley formations of the Appalachians. Morning flights are best to keep the sun behind the aircraft and reduce glare.
