DENFLL

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views including the departing Rocky Mountain Front Range, the lush Ozark Mountains, and a spectacular aerial perspective of the Everglades wetlands during the descent into South Florida.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Front Range Departure

Stunning views of the Colorado Rockies as the plane climbs out of Denver and turns southeast.

🛶

Ozark Mountains

Fly over the rolling green hills and deep river valleys of southern Missouri and Arkansas.

🐊

The Everglades

A prime view of the vast 'River of Grass' and its unique ecosystem during the final approach into FLL.

🏢

South Florida Skylines

Vibrant views of the Fort Lauderdale and Miami high-rises set against the backdrop of the ocean.

Choose the right side for the best sunset views on late afternoon flights. Keep your camera ready during the final 20 minutes of the flight; the contrast between the wild Everglades and the dense urban grid of Fort Lauderdale is visually striking.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌾

Kansas Heartland

View the intricate geometric patterns of center-pivot irrigation circles across the Great Plains.

🌉

Mississippi River

A major geographic milestone where you cross the wide, winding waterway typically near Memphis.

🏙️

Atlanta Outskirts

Distant views of the dense forest canopy and urban sprawl of the Southeast as you cross Georgia.

🏖️

Atlantic Coastline

If the flight approaches from the north, enjoy the turquoise waters and sandy beaches of the Atlantic.

Sit on the left for softer morning light during eastbound flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is ideal for spotting the transition from the Appalachian foothills into the coastal plains of the South.
