Scenic plane ride
A sightseeing flight is a short airplane or helicopter trip taken to view scenery from above rather than to reach a destination.
Popular over landmarks like the Grand Canyon, glaciers, or city skylines, these flights prioritize views over transportation: We booked a sightseeing flight over the volcano.
