Which side of the plane to sit from Charlotte Douglas International Airport (Charlotte) to Florence Regional Airport (Florence)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Charlotte skyline during departure and the iconic Darlington Raceway shortly before landing in Florence.
Charlotte Uptown
A clear view of the 'Queen City' skyscrapers during the initial climb out of Douglas International.
Darlington Raceway
The historic egg-shaped NASCAR track known as 'Too Tough to Tame' is highly visible NW of Florence.
Downtown Florence
The urban core of Florence, featuring the prominent McLeod Regional Medical Center campus on descent.
Andrew Jackson State Park
A lush forested area dedicated to the 7th President, visible shortly after crossing the state line.
Request a window seat on the right for morning flights to see landmarks without glare. Keep your eyes peeled about 10 minutes before landing to spot the oval of Darlington Raceway; it is the most distinct landmark on this short route.
Carolina Sandhills NWR
Vast pine forests and unique ecosystems spanning the border regions between the Carolinas.
Great Pee Dee River
The winding, dark waters of one of the region's largest and most ecologically diverse river systems.
NC/SC State Line
Geometric clearings and changing road patterns marking the boundary between North and South Carolina.
Cheraw State Park
Visible greenery of the historic golf course and the shimmering waters of Lake Juniper.
The left side is ideal for afternoon travel to avoid the harsh western sun. Watch for the dramatic transition from the Piedmont's red clay soil to the distinct sandy terrain of the Coastal Plain as you cross into South Carolina.
