The Great Confluence

Watch for where the Missouri River flows into the Mississippi River just north of St. Louis.

Distant Chicago

On clear days, the Sears Tower and Chicago's skyline may appear as a silhouette on the eastern horizon.

Lake Michigan Shoreline

As you approach MKE, the route often tracks the coastline, showing the transition from land to deep blue water.

Milwaukee Art Museum

The white wings of the Santiago Calatrava-designed museum are easily spotted on the lakefront during landing.

Gateway Arch

Visible shortly after takeoff from STL, the iconic silver arch marks the St. Louis skyline.

Springfield Skyline

The capital of Illinois, including the dome of the State Capitol, is often visible halfway through the flight.

American Family Field

The massive retractable roof of the Brewers' stadium can be seen on the western edge of Milwaukee during descent.

Midwestern Tapestry

Perfectly geometric farm fields and wind turbines create a patchwork quilt effect across central Illinois.
