DFW → EVV
Which side of the plane to sit from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (Dallas-Fort Worth) to Evansville Regional Airport (Evansville)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is generally superior for this route as it offers the highest probability of viewing the Dallas skyline on departure and a more direct view of the Ohio River's meandering path during the descent into Evansville.
Dallas Skyline
Unmatched views of the Reunion Tower and downtown skyscrapers if the flight path tracks southeast initially.
Ouachita Mountains
Unique east-west oriented ridges and pine-covered peaks stretching across western Arkansas.
Arkansas River Valley
A wide, fertile valley cutting through the rugged terrain, often filled with morning mist.
Ohio River Bends
The scenic, sweeping curves of the Ohio River and active barge traffic as you approach the Indiana border.
The right side is ideal for morning departures to catch the sunrise over the Arkansas landscape. Keep your camera ready during takeoff for the Dallas skyline. During the final 10 minutes of flight, look for the industrial infrastructure and bridges spanning the Ohio River near Evansville.
North Texas Suburbs
Bird's-eye view of the rapidly growing Frisco and Plano areas shortly after takeoff from DFW.
Ozark National Forest
Expansive views of the dense hardwood forests and rolling hills of the northern Ozark Mountains.
Table Rock Lake
The intricate, winding shoreline of this major reservoir near the Missouri-Arkansas border.
The Confluence
The dramatic meeting point of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers near Cairo, Illinois, visible just before the final descent.
Sit on the left side during afternoon flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. Watch closely about 45-50 minutes into the flight for the Ozark plateau transition. The confluence of the two major rivers is a must-see landmark that appears roughly 15 minutes before landing.
