Which side of the plane to sit from Trenton Mercer Airport (Trenton) to Indianapolis International Airport (Indianapolis)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the dramatic Appalachian ridge-and-valley province and a better angle of the 'Three Rivers' confluence in Pittsburgh as you head west.
Philadelphia Skyline
Distant views of the Center City skyline and the Delaware River shortly after takeoff from Trenton.
Susquehanna River
Crossing the wide, shallow waters of the Susquehanna near the southern Pennsylvania border.
Appalachian Ridges
Spectacular views of the long, parallel mountain ridges that define the central Pennsylvania landscape.
Pittsburgh Confluence
A prime view of the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers joining to form the Ohio River at the city's Point State Park.
Indiana Flatlands
The dramatic transition from the foothills of the east to the perfectly gridded, multi-colored farmland of the Midwest.
Sit on the left for the best mountain textures. If flying in the morning, the sun will be behind you or directly above, reducing window glare and making the Appalachian valleys pop with detail. During sunset flights, this side will experience significant glare, so lower your shade partially.
Delaware Water Gap
A glimpse of the famous notch in the Blue Mountains where the Delaware River cuts through the ridge.
Nittany Valley
Vast views of central Pennsylvania's limestone valleys and the State College area.
Columbus Skyline
Visible as you pass through central Ohio, looking south toward the state capital's high-rises.
Ohio River Valley
The winding river border between Ohio and West Virginia, marked by industrial hubs and power plants.
Indianapolis Approach
Views of the northern suburbs and occasionally the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway during the descent.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to avoid direct sunlight, providing clear, soft-lit views of the Ohio plains. Keep an eye out for the distinct grid patterns of the Midwest, which become more prominent as you cross the Ohio-Indiana border.
