LASFLL

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Hoover Dam right after takeoff, followed by expansive desert vistas and a breathtaking approach over the Everglades and the Florida coastline.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏗️

Hoover Dam

A spectacular overhead view of the dam and the bypass bridge just minutes after takeoff.

🌵

Sonoran Desert

Vast desert expanses and unique geological formations across Arizona and New Mexico.

🏖️

Gulf Coastline

Stunning transition from land to the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico near the Florida Panhandle.

🐊

The Everglades

The 'River of Grass' stretches out below in a mosaic of green and water during the descent.

🏙️

Fort Lauderdale Coast

Aerial views of the high-rises and Atlantic beaches as the plane banks for its final approach.

Ideal for sunset flights as the sun will set on this side of the aircraft. Keep your camera ready immediately after departure for the Hoover Dam. On approach to FLL, this side typically offers a better view of the dense urban sprawl meeting the wilderness of the Everglades.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏜️

Grand Canyon North

Glimpses of the canyon's deep ravines and the Colorado River as it snakes north of the flight path.

🏔️

Southern Rockies

Rugged mountainous terrain and high-altitude plateaus across the Four Corners region.

💧

Mississippi River

The massive, winding waterway that serves as a geographic divider between the West and East.

🏙️

New Orleans

Often visible in the distance as you traverse the Gulf Coast region towards Florida.

Sit on this side for the best chance to see the Grand Canyon's northern rim. Morning flights provide excellent backlighting for the red rocks, making the colors pop against the desert floor. Seat toward the front to avoid wing obstruction of the winding Mississippi River.
