Which side of the plane to sit from Charlotte County Airport (Punta Gorda) to Toledo Express Airport (Toledo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Appalachian mountain peaks, the Columbus skyline, and the scenic Maumee River valley on approach.
Central Florida Lakes
An aerial perspective of the numerous freshwater lakes dotting the Florida peninsula's interior.
Blue Ridge Mountains
Iconic rolling peaks and blue-hued ridges of the primary Appalachian mountain range.
Columbus Cityscape
A detailed look at the dense urban grid and skyscrapers of Ohio's capital city.
Maumee River
The winding path of the Maumee River as the aircraft aligns for the final approach into Toledo.
Lake Erie
Glimpses of the western basin of Lake Erie and the distant shoreline near the Michigan border.
The right side is significantly better for mountain scenery. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, providing optimal lighting for photos of the Appalachians and the Ohio landscape. Keep an eye out for the Lake Erie shoreline during the final descent into TOL.
Charlotte Harbor
Expansive views of the harbor and Gasparilla Sound immediately after takeoff from Punta Gorda.
Gulf of Mexico
Distant vistas of the Florida coastline and the shimmering turquoise waters to the west.
Appalachian Plateau
Rugged, heavily forested terrain and deep valleys of western West Virginia.
Dayton Skyline
Clear views of the Dayton metropolitan area and the Great Miami River valley during the descent.
Best for sunset flights to catch the light reflecting off the Gulf and the Midwest plains. Watch for the sharp transition from the rugged West Virginia hills to the flat, agricultural grid of Ohio.
