Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a front-row seat to the stunning Queensland coastline, featuring the expansive sand dunes of K'gari and the vibrant blues of the Coral Sea.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏝️

Curtis Island

View the massive industrial port of Gladstone and the diverse wetlands of this large coastal island.

🏖️

K'gari (Fraser Island)

The world's largest sand island is the star attraction, showing off its perched lakes and massive dunes.

🌊

Sunshine Coast Beaches

Stunning aerial perspectives of Noosa's headlands and the long stretches of white sand toward Maroochydore.

🛥️

Moreton Bay

Intricate sand patterns and shallow turquoise waters surrounding Bribie and Moreton Islands on descent.

Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you for the best photography of the coastline. Fraser Island appears roughly 30 minutes into the flight; look for the distinct white sand of Lake McKenzie.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Mount Archer

Enjoy views of the Berserker Range and the winding Fitzroy River immediately after takeoff from Rockhampton.

🌳

Coastal Hinterland

Rolling green hills and dense eucalyptus forests of the Great Dividing Range foothills.

🌋

Glass House Mountains

Spectacular volcanic plugs rising abruptly from the flat coastal plains just north of Brisbane.

🏙️

Brisbane CBD

Depending on the runway approach, you may see the city skyline and the winding Brisbane River.

Ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the glare from the Pacific Ocean. Keep your camera ready about 15 minutes before landing for the dramatic silhouette of the Glass House Mountains.
