Everglades National Park
Vast wetlands and sawgrass prairies stretching west of Fort Lauderdale immediately after takeoff.
Lake Okeechobee
The 'Inland Sea' of Florida, a massive freshwater lake visible as you head north through the state.
Atlanta Outskirts
The distant skyline and sprawling suburban reaches of Georgia's capital city are often visible mid-flight.
Great Smoky Mountains
Layered, blue-tinted mountain ridges that define the horizon as you enter the Appalachian range.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun while enjoying the best views of the mountain descent. Watch for the sudden transition from the flat Florida peninsula to the rolling Piedmont hills of South Carolina.
