United Window Seat

I have flown with United for decades, mostly in a window seat, always with a camera. Here is what I have seen. (I have no affiliation with United; I just geek out on air travel.)
What “almost home” might look like after an intense week at work.

De-icing the wings looked dramatic in this predawn flight from Germany to Copenhagen, just before Christmas. #aviation #travel #photography #ual #united #sas #flying #airtravel

Flying over the American West, I look out the window and see the most wondrous sights—though I often have no idea where I am. Here, an emerald river has cut its way into the Earth, as if it were a stack of colored paper. #travel #photography #aviation #Colorado (maybe) #UnitedAirlines #UAL #aviation

Flying to O’Hare from the west, you’ll often pass the airport and city to u-turn over the lake, with views of the downtown. Here the John Hancock tower rises above the Magnificent Mile, striking a contrast with the azure and turquoise Great Lake. #travel #photography #aviation #Chicago #UAL #United

When I fly into O’Hare, I’m sure to choose seat A, because the approach often feature spectacular views of the city by the lake to the left of the flight path. Showers of warm sunset only enhanced my view this particular evening #travel #photography #Chicago #aviation #ual #united #sunset #ohare
