sightseeing flights
Scenic aviation excursions
Sightseeing flights are short airplane or helicopter trips taken to view scenery from above.
Unlike transportation flights, their purpose is the aerial perspective itself—volcanoes, coastlines, cityscapes, or landmarks like the Grand Canyon.
We booked a sightseeing flight over the glaciers.
Also called flightseeing, especially in Alaska.
