Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Providence to Denver. Left side wins both ends of the flight. Narragansett Bay on departure and the full Front Range panorama on approach make the left seat the clear choice. Mid-flight over the Great Plains both sides are equally unremarkable, so the departure and arrival views are the deciding factor.

During takeoff from Theodore Francis Green State (PVD), sit on the Left side for the best views. PVD's primary departure runway 05/23 means westbound flights typically depart heading southwest. A left-side seat gives you Narragansett Bay spread out below, with Providence's downtown skyline visible before the aircraft turns west. You'll also catch the Rhode Island coastline and the upper reaches of the bay. Notable sights include: Narragansett Bay, Providence downtown skyline, Rhode Island coastline, Pawtuxet River confluence.

When landing at Denver International (DEN), sit on the Left side for the best views. DEN's runways are oriented north-south, and westbound arrivals typically come in from the east heading west. A left-side seat on approach gives you the Front Range of the Rockies — including Longs Peak, Mount Evans, and Pikes Peak — laid out in a dramatic north-to-south panorama as you descend over the plains. The right side faces east toward flat eastern Colorado with little of interest. Notable sights include: Front Range Rocky Mountains, Longs Peak, Mount Evans, Pikes Peak.

The flight from Theodore Francis Green State (PVD) to Denver International (DEN) takes Approximately 4 hours 15 minutes.

The flight tracks across upstate New York, the southern Great Lakes region, northern Indiana and Illinois, then across Iowa and Nebraska before descending over the Colorado High Plains. Over the Midwest you'll see the Missouri River winding through Nebraska and Iowa from either side, and the checkerboard agricultural grid of the Great Plains becomes prominent for the final 90 minutes. The South Platte River valley is visible on descent into Denver.
