MYR → YNG
Which side of the plane to sit from Myrtle Beach International Airport (Myrtle Beach) to Youngstown Warren Regional Airport (Youngstown)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular aerial view of the Atlantic coastline during departure and a prime vantage point for the dramatic topography of the New River Gorge in West Virginia.
The Grand Strand
An incredible panoramic view of the 60-mile continuous stretch of white sand beach immediately following takeoff.
New River Gorge
The iconic New River Gorge Bridge and the deep canyon carved by the river in southern West Virginia.
Pittsburgh Horizon
The distant skyline of the Steel City and its famous three rivers may be visible to the east during the descent phase.
Mosquito Creek Lake
A large reservoir located just north of the Youngstown airport that serves as a landmark for the final approach.
Essential for the best coastal views; choose a window seat behind the wing to avoid engine obstruction of the shoreline. For morning flights, use the window shade or wear sunglasses as the sun will be direct on this side of the aircraft.
Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge
Dense wetlands and winding dark-water river channels visible shortly after departure from Myrtle Beach.
Blue Ridge Peaks
Dramatic silhouettes of the ancient Appalachian mountain ranges during the mid-flight segment over North Carolina.
Charleston Skyline
Look for the gold-domed West Virginia State Capitol building situated along the banks of the Kanawha River.
Allegheny Plateau
Rugged, heavily forested plateaus that characterize the terrain as you cross into the northern Appalachian region.
This side is ideal for sunset flights as the low sun illuminates the western faces of the Appalachian ridges. During autumn, the foliage transition from the coast to the mountains is particularly striking from this vantage point.
