BZNATL

Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the initial mountain departure from Bozeman and a more direct look at the Ozark Mountains and the Atlanta skyline during standard landing patterns.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏔️

Spanish Peaks

Stunning vistas of the rugged Madison Range and Lee Metcalf Wilderness immediately south of BZN.

🌋

Yellowstone Perimeter

Distant views of the Absaroka Range and the northern boundaries of the world's first national park.

🌳

Ozark Mountains

Densely forested rolling hills and deep river valleys across Missouri and northern Arkansas.

🚢

Mississippi River Delta

The massive waterway appears during the transition from the Ozarks into the humid Southern states.

🏙️

Atlanta Skyline

If landing from the west (standard), the right side offers a direct view of the Buckhead, Midtown, and Downtown skyscrapers.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to capture the 'Golden Hour' over the Mississippi and Ozarks. Be ready with your camera 15 minutes before landing; the descent over the Georgia pine forests often leads to a spectacular turn showcasing the full Atlanta skyline. In winter, look for snow-capped peaks in the first 20 minutes of flight.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Bridger Mountain Range

Immediately after takeoff, witness the dramatic limestone crests rising north of Gallatin Valley.

🌲

Bighorn National Forest

Spectacular views of high-altitude alpine meadows and craggy peaks in northern Wyoming.

🌊

Missouri River

The longest river in North America carves through the plains, often visible as a shimmering silver ribbon.

🗼

St. Louis Gateway Arch

On clear northern routings, the iconic silver monument and Mississippi riverfront are visible to the north.

🏞️

Tennessee River

Look for the wide, meandering blue waters as you cross from Alabama into the Georgia foothills.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. During the descent into Atlanta, this side often provides views of Lake Lanier and the North Georgia mountains. Watch for the sharp contrast between the Montana mountains and the flat Nebraska plains early in the flight.
