Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior chance of seeing the Manhattan skyline during the initial climb and provides better views of the rolling Flint Hills and the Mississippi River crossing.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Manhattan Skyline

Dramatic distant views of New York City shortly after departure from Newark.

💧

Susquehanna River

A wide, shallow river cutting through the heart of the Pennsylvania landscape.

🌉

Mississippi River

Crossing the great American waterway near the St. Louis metropolitan area.

🌾

The Flint Hills

A unique tallgrass prairie ecosystem featuring rolling limestone hills in Kansas and Oklahoma.

✈️

Tinker Air Force Base

Visible just east of Oklahoma City during the final approach descent.

For the best NYC views, look out immediately after takeoff if the plane departs toward the north. This side stays cooler during afternoon flights as it faces away from the direct sun.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Appalachian Ridges

Observation of the long, parallel ridges of the Pennsylvania mountains.

🏙️

Philadelphia Metro

Distant views of the Delaware Valley and the outskirts of Philadelphia.

🌊

Ohio River

The winding river border between Ohio, West Virginia, and Kentucky.

🐉

Lake of the Ozarks

A massive, serpentine reservoir in Missouri known as 'The Magic Dragon'.

🌇

OKC Downtown

Direct views of the Devon Tower and the Oklahoma City skyline during certain landing patterns.

Late afternoon flights on this side will experience direct sunlight and glare. This is the preferred side for observing the unique 'dragon' shape of the Lake of the Ozarks in central Missouri.
