The Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon is easily one of the most iconic geographical locations in the United States :united_states: and maybe even the entire western hemisphere. Seeing the Grand Canyon is easily one of the most rewarding experiences especially after a long cross country flight. I like to fly from the east coast to the west coast, starting in New York, NY :statue_of_liberty::red_apple: and making my way over to Los Angeles, CA :palm_tree::camera_with_flash: from seeing the the concrete jungle of NYC, plains of the Midwest, the Rocky Mountains :snow_capped_mountain: the vast deserts :cactus: in the southwest, the Grand Canyon and of course that amazing arrival into LAX never gets old. That’s what I love about “The Transcon” and what better airline to fly with than American Airlines, AA has deployed countless aircraft on this route from some of their iconic Boeing 767-200s, specially configured Airbus A321-200s and the even the all new A321XLR. American is also using their Boeing 777-200ER on the route for some flights and it really brings me back to the B762 era. JFK - LAX is one of those basic routes that somehow never actually bore me.
