LAS โ†’ CLE

Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior sequence of iconic landmarks, starting with an immediate aerial view of the Hoover Dam and continuing through the heart of the Grand Canyon region and the high peaks of the Colorado Rockies.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Hoover Dam

An unparalleled view of the massive concrete arch-gravity dam and the Mike O'Callaghanโ€“Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge.

๐Ÿœ๏ธ

Grand Canyon North Rim

As the flight heads east, you can often spot the deep, intricate carved layers of the Grand Canyon's northern extensions.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Central Rockies 14ers

Glance down at Colorado's highest peaks, including views of famous ski areas like Vail and Aspen.

๐ŸŒ‰

Mississippi River Crossing

Watch for the massive, winding silver ribbon of the Mississippi River as it divides the Great Plains from the Midwest.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Cleveland Skyline

On the standard approach into CLE, the right side usually provides the best view of downtown Cleveland, including Terminal Tower and the lakefront stadiums.

Sit on the right for the best sunrise views over the mountains. To see the Hoover Dam, look out almost immediately after departing LAS. For the best arrival experience, the right side typically offers the most direct view of the Cleveland skyline during the final turn toward the runway.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
๐Ÿœ๏ธ

Lake Mead & Valley of Fire

Stunning contrast between the turquoise reservoir waters and the bright red Aztec sandstone formations of Nevada.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Northern Colorado Rockies

Bird's-eye view of the rugged peaks within Rocky Mountain National Park and the Medicine Bow Curve.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Chicago & Lake Michigan

On clear days, the distant skyline of Chicago and the vast expanse of Lake Michigan are visible to the north.

๐ŸŒŠ

Lake Erie Shoreline

The final descent often follows the northern Ohio coastline, providing views of the lake's islands and industrial ports.

Choose the left side for better lighting during afternoon flights to avoid the direct southern sun. Keep your camera ready about 10 minutes after takeoff for the vibrant colors of the Nevada desert. During the winter, the snow-capped peaks of the Front Range are particularly striking from this side.
