Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a premium view of the Dallas skyline and the scenic lakes of North Texas during the short transition to the East Texas Piney Woods.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Dallas Skyline

Unobstructed views of the Bank of America Plaza and Reunion Tower shortly after departure.

⛵

White Rock Lake

A clear view of the popular urban lake and surrounding parklands in East Dallas.

🌉

Lake Ray Hubbard

Flying directly over the massive Interstate 30 bridge crossing the reservoir at Rockwall.

🌲

Piney Woods

The landscape shifts from urban concrete to the deep, dense greens of the East Texas forests.

Since this flight is exceptionally short, window visibility is key. For the best view of the Dallas skyline, morning flights provide excellent front-lighting. Be observant within the first 10 minutes, as the plane reaches its low cruising altitude quickly.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🏟️

Arlington Stadiums

Spot AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field in the distance during the climb-out phase.

🐍

Trinity River

The meandering path of the Trinity River as it flows south toward the Gulf.

🌊

Lake Palestine

Large water views visible to the south as the aircraft begins its final descent into Tyler.

The right side is ideal for morning departures to avoid the sun's glare while heading east. During the descent into Tyler, look for the sprawling horticultural nurseries that give the region its reputation as the Rose Capital of America.
