San Francisco Skyline
Unobstructed views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, and the downtown city skyline immediately after takeoff.
Napa & Sonoma Valleys
Vast stretches of California's premier wine country with its distinctive grid-patterned vineyards.
Mount Shasta
The massive, snow-covered stratovolcano serves as the centerpiece of the flight as you head north.
Crater Lake
Look for the intense blue water of the deepest lake in the US, nestled within its volcanic caldera near the Oregon border.
Book a window seat on the left for the best lighting on Mount Shasta during morning flights. On clear days, the descent into Central Oregon offers a stunning perspective of the Three Sisters peaks directly ahead and to the left.
