Which side of the plane to sit from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (Dallas-Fort Worth) to Francisco Sarabia International Airport (Torreon)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer expansive desert views, the right side is generally superior for its perspective of the Fort Worth skyline on departure and the iconic hilltop landmarks of Torreon during the final approach.
