Which side of the plane to sit from Saskatoon John G. Diefenbaker International Airport (Saskatoon) to McCarran International Airport (Las Vegas)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic transition from the jagged Northern Rockies and Glacier National Park to the vibrant red rock canyons of Zion and the unique expanse of the Great Salt Lake.
Search flights from YXE to LAS
Glacier National Park
The 'Crown of the Continent' featuring rugged peaks and glacial-carved valleys in Montana.
Yellowstone Ecosystem
The high plateau of Northwest Wyoming, home to thermal features and dense pine forests.
Great Salt Lake
The shimmering waters and salt flats surrounding Salt Lake City, visible as you cross into Utah.
Zion National Park
The massive sandstone cliffs and deep narrow canyons of Southern Utah's most famous park.
The Las Vegas Strip
The iconic skyline of casinos and the Sphere, often visible during the final descent into LAS.
The right side is the clear winner for mountain lovers. You get a front-row seat to the transition from the snowy Rockies to the red desert. On landing, if the wind is from the west, the right side usually provides the most direct view of the Las Vegas Strip hotels. Aim for a window seat away from the wing for the best photography of the Great Salt Lake's color variations.

Saskatchewan Prairies
Geometric agricultural patterns and vast open fields immediately after takeoff from Saskatoon.
Bighorn Mountains
Deep canyons and high peaks of north-central Wyoming visible during the mid-flight cruise.
Canyonlands & Arches
Stunning red rock formations and natural bridges in eastern Utah's desert landscape.
Lake Mead
The deep blue waters of the largest reservoir in the US contrasted against the harsh desert terrain.
Hoover Dam
An aerial perspective of the massive concrete structure on the border of Arizona and Nevada.
Sit on the left for early morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is also excellent for spotting the Hoover Dam and the eastern edge of the Grand Canyon if the pilot takes a slightly eastern flight path. During night arrivals, you may see the glow of smaller towns in Utah and Arizona before the bright lights of Vegas appear.
