MYR → LBE
Which side of the plane to sit from Myrtle Beach International Airport (Myrtle Beach) to Arnold Palmer Regional Airport (Latrobe)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more expansive view of the Atlantic coastline during departure and provides a direct angle of the rising Appalachian ridges as the aircraft tracks north-northwest toward Pennsylvania.
The Grand Strand
A stunning view of the 60-mile stretch of white sand beaches and high-rise hotels immediately after departure from MYR.
Blue Ridge Mountains
As the flight reaches cruising altitude, enjoy distant views of the ancient, hazy blue peaks of the Appalachian range to the west.
Monongahela National Forest
Fly over the rugged, densely forested terrain of West Virginia, featuring deep valleys and narrow ridge lines.
Laurel Highlands
Scenic views of the rolling hills and luxury resorts of Western Pennsylvania during the final descent into Latrobe.
Choose a seat in front of the wing for an unobstructed view of the coastline during takeoff. On clear days, the sunset over the mountains is spectacular for evening flights. In autumn, the left side provides the best perspective on the changing leaf colors of the Highland ridges.
Waccamaw River
Observe the winding blackwater river and the expansive wetlands of the South Carolina Lowcountry shortly after takeoff.
Shenandoah Valley
Distant views of the famous valley and the parallel ridges of the George Washington National Forest to the east.
Morgantown Area
Look for the urban footprint of West Virginia University and the Monongahela River as you cross into the tristate area.
Loyalhanna Lake
A prominent water feature located just north of the airport, often visible during the final approach pattern into LBE.
The right side is ideal for spotting the unique geography of the river-cut valleys in West Virginia. During winter morning flights, this side catches the early light hitting the snow-capped eastern slopes. Use a polarized lens for photos to cut through the haze often present over the Appalachian region.
