Dallas-Fort Worth to Spokane flight path: DFW to GEG

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Dallas-Fort Worth to Spokane. While the takeoff briefly favors the right side over Fort Worth, the long cruise phase crossing the Rocky Mountain front range, Wind River Range, and Bitterroot Mountains, plus the mountainous Idaho panhandle on descent, makes the left side the more consistently scenic choice for the whole flight.

During takeoff from Dallas Fort Worth International (DFW), sit on the Right side for the best views. DFW's typical southerly-wind departure has the jet climb south before banking right onto the northwest course toward Spokane, and that turn keeps the Fort Worth skyline and Trinity River in view on the right side longer than Dallas is visible on the left. Notable sights include: Fort Worth downtown skyline, Trinity River, Lake Worth, North Texas plains.

When landing at Spokane International (GEG), sit on the Left side for the best views. On the northeast-to-southwest approach into GEG's Runway 21, the descent path crosses the forested Idaho panhandle, putting Lake Coeur d'Alene and the Selkirk Mountains on the left side before the final turn toward Spokane. Notable sights include: Lake Coeur d'Alene, Selkirk Mountains, Spokane River, Mount Spokane.

The flight from Dallas Fort Worth International (DFW) to Spokane International (GEG) takes about 3 hours 45 minutes. The shortest flight path between them is 1,476 miles (2,375 km); winds and air traffic control usually add a few percent.

Front Range of the Rockies near Denver, the Wind River Range and high plains of Wyoming, and the Bitterroot Mountains along the Idaho-Montana border before descending toward the Columbia Plateau near Spokane.
