MCO → IND
Which side of the plane to sit from Orlando International Airport (Orlando) to Indianapolis International Airport (Indianapolis)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the Appalachian foothills, the lush greenery of the Tennessee valley, and the iconic horse country of Kentucky before descending into the Midwest.
The Space Coast
On clear days, the distant Atlantic shoreline and Cape Canaveral are visible during the initial northern climb.
Appalachian Ridges
Views of the western edges of the Great Smoky Mountains and the ancient, folded ridges of eastern Tennessee.
Bluegrass Country
The distinctive, manicured horse farms and rolling pastures of central Kentucky, particularly near Lexington.
Hoosier National Forest
Dense, uninterrupted canopy of southern Indiana's largest forest, which is particularly stunning during fall foliage.
Ideal for morning flights to avoid direct glare. Keep an eye out for the distinct change in topography from the jagged Kentucky hills to the flat, grid-patterned farmland of Indiana as you approach IND.
Orlando Theme Parks
Excellent views of the sprawling Walt Disney World and Universal resorts shortly after takeoff from MCO.
Nashville Skyline
The high-rises of Music City and the winding Cumberland River are often visible during the cruise phase.
Cumberland Plateau
The rugged terrain of the Tennessee highlands provides a textured landscape of deep gorges and flat-topped hills.
The Ohio River
A clear view of the massive river crossing that separates the rolling hills of Kentucky from the plains of Indiana.
Choose a seat in front of the wing to maximize views of Orlando's attractions during departure. Afternoon flights will have the sun on this side, which is great for sunset views but can be bright during cruise.
