Which side of the plane to sit from Page Municipal Airport (Page) to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (Phoenix)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is the superior choice for this route, offering direct views of the stunning Marble Canyon at the start and the world-famous red rock formations of Sedona mid-flight.
Glen Canyon Dam
A massive concrete arch-gravity dam holding back the blue waters of Lake Powell right after takeoff.
Marble Canyon
The dramatic beginning of the Grand Canyon system where the Colorado River carves a deep limestone trench.
Humphreys Peak
Get a close-up view of Arizona's highest point, standing at 12,633 feet above sea level.
Sedona Red Rocks
Stunning aerial views of Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, and the dramatic Mogollon Rim escarpment.
Verde Valley
A lush green riparian corridor that serves as a vibrant contrast to the surrounding arid terrain.
Sonoran Desert
As you descend into Phoenix, watch the landscape transition into the iconic Saguaro-studded valley.
Sit on the right for an unparalleled view of Marble Canyon and Sedona. About 15-20 minutes into the flight, look down for the vivid red rock formations. Late afternoon flights are spectacular on this side as the setting sun makes the Sedona rocks glow bright orange and red.
Navajo Nation
Vast stretches of traditional tribal lands with unique geological textures and mesas.
Painted Desert
Brilliant bands of colored clay and sandstone stretching toward the eastern horizon.
San Francisco Peaks
Views of the eastern slopes of Arizona's highest volcanic mountain range near Flagstaff.
Coconino National Forest
The world's largest stand of Ponderosa pines creates a dense green carpet below.
Fountain Hills
On final approach, look for the massive fountain that shoots water 560 feet into the air.
The left side is best during early morning flights when the low sun illuminates the Painted Desert's layers. Watch for the sharp shadows over the Navajo Nation's mesas. During winter months, the San Francisco Peaks are beautifully snow-capped, providing a stark contrast to the desert floor.
