The Three Sisters

Immediately after departure, view the spectacular trio of volcanic peaks and the adjacent Mount Bachelor.

Crater Lake

Often visible roughly 20-30 minutes into the flight; look for the distinct deep blue water inside the caldera.

Central Valley

Observe the vast, geometric patchwork of California's agricultural heartland stretching toward the horizon.

Santa Monica Bay

As the plane turns for its final approach, you can see the Pacific coastline and the Santa Monica Pier.

Newberry Volcanic Monument

Visible shortly after takeoff from RDM, look for the massive Paulina Lake and East Lake within the caldera.

Mojave Desert

Expansive views of the high desert landscape, arid basins, and solar farms as you cross into Southern California.

San Gabriel Mountains

Rugged peaks that form the northern boundary of the Los Angeles Basin, often snow-capped in winter.

Downtown LA Skyline

During the final descent into LAX, the left side typically offers a clear view of the city's high-rise core.
