East Coast Megalopolis
Aerial views of major urban centers including the Manhattan skyline and the New Jersey shoreline.
Chesapeake Bay
The massive estuary system of Maryland and Virginia, featuring the impressive Bay Bridge and Delmarva Peninsula.
The Outer Banks
The thin, sandy ribbon of North Carolina's barrier islands extending deep into the Atlantic Ocean.
Space Coast
As you descend toward Sanford, you can often spot the Kennedy Space Center and the massive Vehicle Assembly Building.
Florida Shoreline
The turquoise waters and white sands of the Jacksonville and Daytona Beach coastlines before turning inland.
On morning flights, the sun will be on this side, which may cause glare but provides beautiful ocean reflections. During the initial climb from BTV, you'll see the Green Mountains of Vermont fading into the distance. This side is superior for coastal photography, especially during the middle third of the flight over the Mid-Atlantic.

The rolling, densely forested ridges of the Appalachian chain stretching through Virginia and North Carolina.
Piedmont Plateau
A vast expanse of rolling hills and hardwood forests characterizing the interior Southeast.
Florida Lake District
As the plane approaches Sanford, the landscape becomes dotted with hundreds of circular freshwater lakes.
Choose the right side for afternoon or evening flights to enjoy the sunset over the inland mountains. This side offers better views of the autumn foliage if traveling in late September or October over the Appalachian range. On descent into SFB, you will get a great look at the St. Johns River snaking through the Florida landscape.
