DAL β LIT
Which side of the plane to sit from Dallas Love Field (Dallas) to Bill & Hillary Clinton National Airport/Adams Field (Little Rock)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a high-impact view of the Dallas skyline shortly after takeoff from Love Field and provides a scenic perspective of the Arkansas River and Little Rock downtown during the descent.
Dallas Skyline
An exceptional view of Reunion Tower and the downtown skyscrapers during the initial climb.
Lake Tawakoni
A massive body of water known as the Catfish Capital of Texas, easily spotted from cruising altitude.
Texarkana Area
The geographic region where Texas and Arkansas meet, characterized by dense pine forests.
Little Rock Capitol
A clear view of the Arkansas State Capitol building and the city core on the final descent into LIT.
Sit on the right side for the best chance to see the Dallas skyline, especially if the plane departs towards the south. For late afternoon flights, this side will catch the golden hour light reflecting off the many lakes and the Little Rock cityscape.
North Dallas Suburbs
The expansive residential grids of Plano and Richardson as the flight gains altitude.
Lake Lavon
A prominent blue reservoir that marks the transition out of the immediate DFW metro area.
Ouachita Foothills
The rising, forested terrain of western Arkansas visible as you approach the destination.
Arkansas River Valley
The winding riverbed that serves as a primary navigational landmark for the Little Rock approach.
The left side is preferable for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. Keep an eye out for the distinct change in topography from flat Texas prairies to the rolling, timber-heavy hills of Arkansas about 30 minutes into the flight.
