The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled sequence of Southwest landmarks, including the southern Rocky Mountains, the perfectly preserved Meteor Crater, and the stunning expanse of the Grand Canyon South Rim.
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the massive wind farm arrays in West Texas and provides a more direct view of the Fort Worth and Dallas skylines during the descent into Dallas Love Field.
The Left Side is superior for this route because it offers a panoramic view of the Rocky Mountains' Front Range as you approach Denver, including the iconic Pikes Peak.
The right side offers a superior view of the iconic Texas Hill Country, including the serpentine Lake Travis and a clear perspective of the Austin skyline during the descent.
The right side offers superior views of the Brazos River landmarks, the scenic Palo Pinto Mountains, and a clearer look at the Fort Worth skyline and Lake Worth during the final approach into DFW.
The Left Side is preferred primarily for the approach into the Rio Grande Valley, offering glimpses of the Gulf of Mexico, the Laguna Madre, and the dramatic transition of the Caprock Escarpment early in the flight.
The right side offers superior views of the dramatic transition from the High Plains to the rolling Hill Country, plus better odds for the Houston skyline during arrival.
