Grand Strand Coastline

Immediate views of the Atlantic Ocean and the long stretch of beach after departing Myrtle Beach.

🛥️

Chesapeake Bay

A vast look at the intricate waterways and bridges of the Mid-Atlantic coast.

🌆

NYC Skyline

On clear days, see the Manhattan skyline and the surrounding boroughs in the distance.

🌊

Hudson River Valley

The plane often parallels the majestic Hudson River as it moves toward the Canadian border.

💧

Lake Champlain

Stunning views of the lake and the Green Mountains of Vermont during the approach into Plattsburgh.

Morning flights are ideal for the right side to avoid direct sun glare while capturing the sunrise over the Atlantic. The approach into PBG is the highlight, as the plane usually flies over or alongside Lake Champlain, offering views of the Vermont shoreline.
