After over 20 trips, I finally got to see WDW from the airplane. And I figured out what I've been doing wrong all these years. I saw it when we took off to leave. All these years, I'm such a wimp at take-off time, that I've closed my eyes. But when we get close to landing, I've been craning my neck, looking out of every window I can, crawling over people's laps practically, and seeing-NOTHING! Now I've figured it out-look out the window when you take off to leave. I saw the MK (with SM and the castle), Epcot (the lagoon and SE, too), OKW, the golf courses at SOE, and I can't remember what else. At long last-it was so exciting to see it from the air!

I was waving at you but you either didn't see me or were just being rude.

Congratulation's Simba's Mom. I love seeing WDW from the plane although I usually see it during landing.

I was going to ask what side of the plane you were on. But I also get it would matter what airlines and which side of the terminal you leave from.

Last Oct, I flew SWA from MCO to Ft. Myers. The plane took off to the North and banked left right over the MK. Cool to see Space Mtn from the air.

Viking , I think she was ignoring you...you forgot your helmut, remember? That one with the horns.
S's mom: I don't think I've seen MK from the air, but I remember once flying to california and our plane went right over my house....and I could see my horse in the pasture!!!!! For some reason, that was sooooo cool to me that I never forgot it. When Wishes is on and there is a plane taking off...I always wonder if the people are watching from the plane! Now I know that you were.

Just when I had given up hope...
Then again, I don't know if it's possible when you fly into SFB.
