LASIDA

Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers a more dramatic and iconic sequence of landmarks, including the red rock canyons of Southern Utah and a close-up view of the rugged Wasatch Range.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🎰

Las Vegas Strip

On most northbound departures, you'll get a sprawling view of the resort corridor and Sphere early in the climb.

⛰️

Zion National Park

Glimpse the deep canyons and towering white and red Navajo Sandstone cliffs from high above.

🏙️

Salt Lake City Skyline

A perfect view of the Utah State Capitol and the downtown grid nestled against the mountains.

🏔️

Wasatch Mountain Range

Dramatic, snow-capped peaks that run parallel to the flight path for a significant portion of the trip.

🏔️

The Grand Tetons

On clear days during the descent into IDA, the jagged peaks of the Teton Range are visible on the horizon.

Choose a window seat in front of the wing for unobstructed views of Zion. Morning flights are ideal for the right side, as the rising sun perfectly illuminates the Wasatch Mountains. Look for the 'V' shape of the canyons near Salt Lake City for great photography opportunities.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🏜️

Red Rock Canyon

Just after departure from LAS, look for the stunning red sandstone formations of the Mojave Desert.

🌊

Great Salt Lake

A massive expanse of saline water featuring the causeway and Antelope Island as you pass Northern Utah.

🌾

Snake River Plain

The flat, fertile volcanic landscape of Idaho begins to appear as you approach the final descent.

Sit on the left if you are flying during sunset; the reflection off the Great Salt Lake is breathtaking. Keep an eye out for the stark contrast between the desert basins and the irrigated circles of the Snake River Plain near the end of the flight.
