QRO → DFW
Which side of the plane to sit from Querétaro Intercontinental Airport (Queretaro) to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (Dallas-Fort Worth)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the jagged Sierra Madre Oriental mountain ridges and provides a more direct perspective of the iconic Dallas skyline during the standard approach into DFW.
Sierra Madre Oriental
Dramatic views of the steep, folded limestone mountain ranges that run parallel to the flight path in Mexico.
Falcon Reservoir
A massive turquoise body of water on the Rio Grande that marks the international boundary between the US and Mexico.
Texas Brush Country
The unique landscape of South Texas, characterized by geometric ranch patterns and dense mesquite vegetation.
Dallas Skyline
The most iconic view of the trip, featuring the Reunion Tower and the shimmering glass skyscrapers of downtown Dallas.
AT&T Stadium
A bird's-eye view of the massive, silver-domed home of the Dallas Cowboys in Arlington during the southern approach.
For the best mountain views, choose the right side on morning flights when the sun illuminates the eastern slopes of the Sierra Madre. When landing to the north (South Flow), this side provides a stunning panoramic view of the Dallas skyline and the Trinity River corridor.
Mexican Plateau
Expansive views of the high-altitude arid landscapes and volcanic soil of the Bajío region.
Chihuahuan Desert
Watch the terrain transition into the rugged, brush-filled landscapes of northern San Luis Potosí.
Fort Worth Skyline
A clear view of the 'Cowtown' downtown area and the historic Stockyards as you enter the metroplex.
DFW Logistics Hub
An impressive overhead view of the massive terminal layout and the sprawling cargo facilities on the west side of the airport.
The left side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun. It offers excellent views of the vast Texas plains and the western suburbs of the DFW Metroplex during descent.
