🌇

Dallas Skyline

Unmatched views of the Reunion Tower and downtown skyscrapers immediately after takeoff from Love Field.

🌳

White Rock Lake

A scenic urban oasis east of downtown Dallas, popular for its sailing and surrounding greenery.

🛶

Lake Ray Hubbard

One of the largest lakes in North Texas, recognizable by its long bridges and recreational areas.

🗼

Oral Roberts University

Spot the iconic futuristic architecture and the tall Prayer Tower as you enter the Tulsa metro area.

🏞️

Arkansas River

The winding river provides a natural guide into the heart of Tulsa during the descent.

Choose this side if you want the best chance at seeing the Dallas skyline. In the morning, the light hits the city buildings and the Arkansas River beautifully. Look for the 'Golden Driller' statue near the fairgrounds during the final approach.

🏙️

North Dallas Suburbs

Intricate patterns of residential developments and the busy North Dallas Tollway corridor.

🌊

Lake Lewisville

A vast reservoir providing a sprawling blue contrast to the dense Texas urban sprawl.

Lake Texoma

Cross the Red River border with views of this massive lake's intricate, sandy shoreline.

🌾

Oklahoma Prairies

Sit forward of the wing for the clearest views of the lakes. This side is ideal for late afternoon flights as the sun will be behind you, providing excellent natural lighting for the Oklahoma landscape.
