Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is generally superior for this short route, offering views of the Dallas skyline during departure and the most iconic views of Downtown Little Rock and the Arkansas River during landing.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Dallas Skyline

Visible to the south during the initial climb, showing the Reunion Tower and Bank of America Plaza.

⛰️

Pinnacle Mountain

A distinct, cone-shaped peak that serves as a landmark just west of the Little Rock urban area.

🏢

Downtown Little Rock

Excellent views of the state capital's skyscrapers and the historic Old State House during the descent.

📚

Clinton Presidential Center

The distinctive cantilevered building and the surrounding park are highly visible right along the riverfront.

This is the preferred side for the landing sequence. Request a window seat on the right to see the Arkansas River and the downtown bridges. Late afternoon flights offer the best lighting for photography of the Little Rock skyline.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
✈️

DFW Airport Complex

An expansive aerial view of the massive airfield and its five semi-circular terminals immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Lake Ray Hubbard

A major reservoir on the east side of the Dallas metroplex that shines brightly under the sun.

🌲

Ouachita National Forest

Dense, rolling green hills of the oldest national forest in the Southern United States as you cross the Arkansas border.

Sit on this side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. You will have a better perspective of the rugged northern terrain of the Ouachita Mountains as you enter Arkansas airspace.
