Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior perspective of the Missouri and Mississippi River systems, the rolling Ozark Mountains, and the diverse lake landscapes of Central Florida.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌾

Great Plains Mosaic

Intricate patterns of agricultural land and center-pivot irrigation across Iowa and Missouri.

🏞️

Ozark National Forest

Dense forest canopy and limestone bluffs of the Ozark Plateau as you cross into Arkansas.

🚢

Mississippi River Delta

Vivid views of the industrial and natural beauty of the river geography near the Memphis crossing.

🏖️

Florida Panhandle

Distant views of the white sands along the Gulf of Mexico as the plane enters Florida airspace.

🎡

Orlando Theme Parks

Distant views of the iconic structures of Walt Disney World and Universal resorts during the southern approach.

This side is optimally positioned to avoid direct sun glare on southbound morning flights. Look for the Missouri River early in the flight. In clear weather, the contrast between the flat Midwestern plains and the rugged Ozark forests is striking. During landing, watch for the numerous circular sinkhole lakes characteristic of Central Florida.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Twin Cities Skyline

Potential views of the Minneapolis-Saint Paul metro area and the U.S. Bank Stadium early in the journey.

🌊

Upper Mississippi River

Aerial view of the winding river as it carves through the driftless area of the Midwest.

⛰️

Smoky Mountain Ridges

Distant but beautiful silhouettes of the Appalachian range visible over Tennessee and Georgia.

🏢

Downtown Atlanta

The massive urban expanse of the Atlanta metro area and the world's busiest airport from high altitude.

🚤

St. Johns River

The winding dark waters of the St. Johns River leading toward Sanford during the final descent.

Sit here for spectacular sunrise views on early morning departures from Fargo. Watch for the lights of major Midwestern cities if flying at night. During the descent into SFB, you may catch a glimpse of the Atlantic coastline on the far horizon if the approach comes from the north.
