LBE → MCO
Which side of the plane to sit from Arnold Palmer Regional Airport (Latrobe) to Orlando International Airport (Orlando)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a spectacular combination of the Appalachian mountain ridges during the initial cruise and a high probability of viewing the iconic Orlando theme parks during the final descent into MCO.

Appalachian Ridges
Continuous views of the rolling blue-toned peaks of the Blue Ridge and Appalachian mountain ranges.
Charlotte Skyline
The dense skyscraper cluster of 'Uptown' Charlotte, North Carolina, often visible mid-route.
Florida Lake District
The sudden transition into Central Florida's landscape, dotted with thousands of circular freshwater lakes.
Orlando Theme Parks
Unrivaled views of Walt Disney World Resort, including Spaceship Earth and the Tower of Terror, during the approach.
Sit on the right for afternoon flights to avoid the direct morning sun glare. As the plane descends into Orlando, the right side typically provides the best view of the theme park areas (Disney and Universal) if the aircraft is landing on the southward-facing runways (Runways 17L/R or 18L/R).

Laurel Highlands
Lush forested ridges of Southwestern Pennsylvania visible immediately after takeoff from Latrobe.
Atlantic Coastline
Distant views of the Carolina coastline and the intricate barrier islands of Georgia and South Carolina.
Jacksonville & St. Johns River
The massive winding St. Johns River and the downtown Jacksonville skyline as you enter Florida.
Space Coast Horizon
On clear days, the distant launch pads of Cape Canaveral and Kennedy Space Center appear on the horizon to the east.
Choose the left side for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the Atlantic horizon. During the mid-flight phase, look for the unique patterns of the 'Lowcountry' salt marshes and tidal creeks along the Georgia coast.
