Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers spectacular views of the red rock formations near Zion, the highest peaks of the Colorado Rockies, and a more direct view of the Mississippi River crossing.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏜️

Lake Mead & Valley of Fire

Dramatic views of the red sandstone formations and the deep blue waters of the Colorado River reservoir shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Zion National Park

Aerial perspective of the deep canyons and towering plateaus of southern Utah's famous red rock country.

🏔️

Central Colorado Rockies

Soar over the highest peaks of the Continental Divide, including the majestic 14,000-foot summits near Aspen and Vail.

🏙️

Denver Metro Area

Catch the sprawling Denver skyline and the transition from the rugged mountains to the flat Great Plains.

🌊

Upper Mississippi River

A clear view of the winding river border between Iowa and Illinois, featuring intricate sandbars and lush river valleys.

Choose a seat in front of the wing for unobstructed views of the desert canyons. Morning flights provide the best lighting for the red rocks of Utah and the high peaks of the Rockies. During winter, look for the stark contrast between snow-capped mountains and the dark evergreen forests.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏗️

Hoover Dam

A classic aerial view of the engineering marvel and the Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge during departure.

🏔️

Southern Colorado Rockies

Views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the Pikes Peak region as the flight crosses the high country.

🌬️

Kansas Wind Farms

Massive arrays of wind turbines dotting the vast agricultural landscape of the central United States.

🏙️

Chicago Skyline

On the final descent, catch glimpses of the Willis Tower and the Lake Michigan shoreline if the flight path tracks south.

🌊

Lake Michigan Coast

Beautiful views of the deep blue lake and the sandy beaches of the Wisconsin coastline during the approach to MKE.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the tail and the glowing lights of Midwestern cities. Keep your camera ready during the final 15 minutes of the flight; depending on wind patterns, you may get a stunning panoramic view of the Milwaukee lakefront and downtown architecture.
