Search flights from OGG to SEA
Haleakalā
The 'House of the Sun' volcanic crater is visible in stunning detail shortly after takeoff.
Mount Rainier
The massive, glaciated 14,411-foot peak dominates the window view during the final 20 minutes.
Mount St. Helens
The famous horseshoe-shaped crater from the 1980 eruption is often visible to the south.
Mount Adams
A secondary, massive stratovolcano visible in the distance east of the flight path.
Bellevue Skyline
Views of the tech hubs and residential areas of the Eastside during the final approach.
Sit on the right side for the most iconic landmarks. For the best view of Haleakalā, look out within the first 10 minutes of flight. As you approach Seattle, Mount Rainier will appear on the right; morning flights offer the best lighting for photography of these snow-capped peaks.
