Brisbane Skyline
Excellent views of the Brisbane River loops and the CBD skyscrapers immediately after a westward departure.
Scenic Rim
Dramatic views of the rugged mountain peaks and national parks forming the Great Dividing Range.
Darling Downs
A stunning geometric patchwork of green and gold fields across one of Australia's most fertile farming regions.
Condamine River
Visible winding waterways that feed into the Murray-Darling Basin, creating silver threads through the landscape.
Outback Transition
A clear visual shift where the green vegetation gives way to the iconic red earth and mulga scrub of Western Queensland.
Book an afternoon flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Great Dividing Range and the agricultural patterns of the Darling Downs. A window seat just behind the wing (Seat A) is ideal to avoid engine glare while maintaining a wide field of view.

Glass House Mountains
Distant but distinct silhouettes of ancient volcanic plugs visible to the north during the initial climb.
Bunya Mountains
Views of the unique high-altitude rainforest peaks known for their ancient Bunya Pine forests.
Roma Energy Hub

Warrego River

The right side (Seat F or K) is excellent for spotting northern landmarks like the Bunyas. On morning flights, the lighting on this side is softer, making it easier to photograph the subtle textures of the outback terrain without harsh shadows.
