Which side of the plane to sit from McCarran International Airport (Las Vegas) to Great Falls International Airport (Great Falls)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers an unparalleled showcase of the American West's diversity, featuring iconic red rocks, major engineering feats, and the massive Wasatch Range.
Hoover Dam
A bird's-eye view of the dam and the O'Callaghan-Tillman Memorial Bridge over the Colorado River.
Zion National Park
Vibrant red and white Navajo sandstone formations visible as the flight traverses southern Utah.
Wasatch Range
A stunning continuous wall of peaks stretching from central Utah up toward the Idaho border.
Yellowstone Vista
On a clear day, the distant horizon reveals the high plateaus and peaks of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
Afternoon flights are spectacular on this side as the setting sun brings out the deep reds of Zion. Look out 20 minutes after takeoff for the Lake Mead area and 40 minutes in for Zion.
Spring Mountains
Massive limestone peaks including Mount Charleston visible immediately after departure from Las Vegas.
Great Salt Lake
The largest saltwater lake in the Western Hemisphere, offering unique crystalline shorelines and islands.
Montana Wilderness
The transition into Big Sky Country features the sprawling forests and river valleys of the northern Rockies.
Choose this side for morning departures to minimize glare. Keep your camera ready as you pass the Utah-Idaho border for the best views of the lake's color contrasts.
