LASMTY

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a superior experience by offering potential views of the Las Vegas Strip upon departure and the iconic Cerro de la Silla mountain during the final approach into Monterrey.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Las Vegas Strip

A spectacular aerial view of the world-famous casino corridor and the Sphere during the initial climb.

🌵

Sonoran Desert

Rugged basin and range topography with unique desert ecosystems stretching across the border.

⛰️

Cerro de la Silla

The distinctive saddle-shaped mountain that serves as the primary symbol of Monterrey.

🧗

La Huasteca Canyon

Jagged limestone cliffs and massive rock walls visible on the western outskirts of the city during descent.

Sit on the right for the iconic Monterrey landmarks. If the flight departs south from LAS, the view of the Strip is unbeatable. During the approach to MTY, the right side usually offers the best angle of the city's unique mountainous skyline. Night flights are especially recommended on this side for the city lights of both the origin and destination.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
💧

Lake Mead

Excellent views of the deep blue reservoir and Hoover Dam area shortly after takeoff.

🏜️

Painted Desert

Vibrant geological layers of the Colorado Plateau visible across northern Arizona.

🏔️

Sierra Madre Oriental

The eastern edges of this massive mountain system provide a dramatic backdrop as you enter Mexico.

Opt for the left side on morning flights to see the desert floor illuminated by the rising sun without direct glare. Look for the transition from the arid Mojave to the high-altitude plateaus of the Southwest.
