Daytona Beach
The iconic Florida coastline and the Atlantic horizon visible during the initial climb.
Jacksonville & St. Johns
The mouth of the St. Johns River and the bustling port infrastructure of North Florida.
Georgia Barrier Islands
Views of Cumberland and Jekyll Islands, known for their pristine dunes and salt marshes.
Charleston Harbor
The historic peninsula of Charleston and the Ravenel Bridge are often visible about 45 minutes into the flight.
The Grand Strand
The long, continuous stretch of white sand beaches near Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
The right side is significantly more scenic for coastline enthusiasts. For the best experience, book a morning flight when the sun illuminates the Atlantic and the coastal marshes.
