Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Regina to Edmonton. While takeoff favors the right, the landing approach provides superior views of Edmonton's defining geographic feature—the North Saskatchewan River valley—which is more visually distinctive than Regina's departure landscape. The river's meanders and ravine system are dramatic from altitude.

During takeoff from Regina International (YQR), sit on the Right side for the best views. Regina typically departs to the north or northeast. Right-side seats offer views of the Qu'Appelle River valley and the transition from prairie to boreal forest as the aircraft climbs northwestward toward Edmonton. Notable sights include: Qu'Appelle River valley, Regina city grid, transition zone from grassland to aspen parkland, northern prairie extending to horizon.

When landing at Edmonton Namao (YED), sit on the Left side for the best views. Edmonton Namao (now CFB Edmonton) is located northeast of the city. Left-side seats during approach from the south provide views of the North Saskatchewan River valley, Edmonton's downtown core, and the river's distinctive meanders as the aircraft descends. Notable sights include: North Saskatchewan River valley with visible meanders, Edmonton downtown skyline, Whyte Avenue district, river ravine system cutting through the landscape.

The flight from Regina International (YQR) to Edmonton Namao (YED) takes Approximately 1 hour 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the aspen parkland transition zone between the two cities. Notable features include scattered lakes in the parkland region (particularly visible around the Camrose area), the gradual increase in forest density northward, and the transition from prairie grassland to mixed boreal forest. The landscape remains relatively flat throughout, with no significant mountain ranges visible. Numerous small lakes and wetlands dot the terrain between Regina and Edmonton, becoming more frequent as the aircraft approaches the northern city.
