Here’s something to geek out about: the Rocky Mountains. Your plane will take off, climb over the Front Range, and then—boom—you’re above the arid plateaus of Utah. Within an hour, you’ll see the Sierra Nevada rising up, and then suddenly, California sprawls below you.
It’s like watching a timelapse of the American West. You leave behind pine forests and snow, and land where people are wearing flip-flops in February. Pretty wild, considering it’s less time than a bad traffic jam.

And honestly? Even with a delay, you’re looking at less than half a day to change your whole scenery. That’s the magic of modern air travel.
