The takeoff from Bali offers more dramatic and distinctive volcanic scenery with Mount Agung and the island's interior highlands. While the landing approach into Ontario provides good views of the San Gabriel Mountains, the volcanic peaks of Bali are more visually striking and geographically unique.
Flight Path
The flight crosses the Pacific Ocean for approximately 8,000 nautical miles. Notable geographic features along the route include: the Philippine Sea and western Pacific basin (no major landmarks visible at cruise altitude over open ocean); the International Date Line crossing; the Hawaiian Islands chain (if routed south, Maui and Hawaii Big Island may be visible on southern routes); the North American west coast approaching California with the Sierra Nevada range visible inland from the California coast; and the Mojave Desert region east of Los Angeles before descent into Ontario.
