Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Burbank to Denver. While the right side wins at takeoff for the San Gabriel Mountains, the left side delivers the more spectacular payoff on landing with the entire Rocky Mountain Front Range panorama. Over the flight, the left side also tracks closer to the Colorado Plateau features and the Rockies as you approach Denver from the southwest.

During takeoff from Burbank Glendale Pasadena (BUR), sit on the Right side for the best views. BUR typically departs eastbound on runway 08, so the right (south) side gives you a clear look at the San Gabriel Mountains including Mount Wilson and the sprawling San Fernando Valley below. The left side faces north toward the Verdugo Mountains, which are far less dramatic. Notable sights include: San Gabriel Mountains, Mount Wilson, downtown Los Angeles skyline to the south, San Fernando Valley grid.

When landing at Denver International (DEN), sit on the Left side for the best views. DEN typically lands westbound on runway 25L/25R, meaning the left (south) side faces the Front Range of the Rockies — Pikes Peak, Longs Peak, and the entire Rocky Mountain wall are laid out dramatically as you descend. The right side looks north and east over flat plains with little of interest. Notable sights include: Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, Pikes Peak, Longs Peak, Denver city grid.

The flight from Burbank Glendale Pasadena (BUR) to Denver International (DEN) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.
