Flight Path

Flight path overview

Flight path crosses the Atlantic northeast of Ireland, passing over the North Atlantic at cruising altitude where no landmarks are visible. Approaching North America, the flight crosses Newfoundland and Labrador (visible as rocky, sparsely vegetated terrain), then over Quebec's boreal forest and numerous lakes. The Canadian Shield landscape dominates the final 2-3 hours—a patchwork of dark coniferous forest, lakes, and rivers characteristic of the Ontario-Quebec border region.
