Search flights from LAS to ICT
Las Vegas Strip
An incredible aerial view of the mega-resorts, especially dramatic on night departures.
Grand Canyon
Sweeping views of the South Rim's vast depth and intricate geological layers.
Painted Desert
The vibrant, multi-colored badlands of Northern Arizona stretching toward the horizon.
Sangre de Cristo Mountains
Sharp, dramatic ridges marking the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountain range.
Kansas Patchwork
The iconic geometric patterns of circular irrigation and vast agricultural fields.
The right side is the 'scenic side' for the Grand Canyon; it appears 15-20 minutes after takeoff. For the best photography, choose a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Afternoon flights provide stunning golden hour lighting over the Kansas grasslands as you approach Wichita.

Lake Mead
The massive reservoir and Hoover Dam area visible immediately after departing Las Vegas.
Lake Powell
The winding blue waters of the Colorado River cutting through Glen Canyon's red rock.
San Juan Mountains
The rugged, often snow-capped peaks of the Southern Rockies in Colorado.
Arkansas River
Following the river's path as it winds through the transition from desert to Kansas plains.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. This side is superior for viewing the deep blue of Lake Mead and the snow-capped San Juan range during winter months. Look for the 'Colorado Plateau' transition about 30 minutes into the flight.
