This westbound transatlantic routing typically crosses the Arctic or subarctic regions. Notable features include: Greenland's ice sheet and coastal fjords (if routed via Greenland), the Canadian Arctic islands and tundra landscape, the Hudson Bay region, and the transition from Arctic terrain to the boreal forest of central Canada. The flight crosses multiple time zones and typically passes over Baffin Island or the Northwest Territories during the mid-flight phase. The North Atlantic crossing portion offers views of open ocean with occasional icebergs visible in spring/early summer months.
