Manhattan Skyline
The ultimate highlight during the descent into EWR, offering a clear view of the Empire State Building and One World Trade Center.
Book a seat on the left side, preferably ahead of the wing, to witness the iconic New York City skyline during the final minutes of the flight. For early morning departures, the sun will be behind you, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Utah canyons and the Rockies.

The right side offers the best view of the Las Vegas Strip depending on the departure runway. However, because the flight travels east, the sun will be on the right side for most of the day, which can create significant glare and heat. Keep the window shade partially closed during the mid-flight segment to stay comfortable.
