American Airlines Airbus A321-200 (N145AN) Fun Landing into Tucson International Airport TUS / KTUS

After an awesome half weekend in Dallas watching the Colorado Avalanche take on the Dallas Stars in a preseason game, it’s time to head back home.
I had the best seat-11F, an emergency exit window seat with no one in front of me! The only hiccup? A flight attendant’s jump seat right across from me. We shared an awkward moment of eye contact, but I quickly got lost in the view outside as I filmed the takeoff.
Overall, the flight was smooth sailing… until we approached Tucson, where it was a sweltering 106 degrees! It got a bit bumpy, but that’s pretty standard. Definitely not as smooth as our landing on the way to Dallas!
And a big shout out to the flight attendant who surprised me with two mini bottles of gin! It’s always nice to enjoy that little perk in main cabin extra.
Cheers to a fantastic trip! Don’t forget to like and subscribe for more adventures!

Great

Nice Video! The approach's into TUS are so much longer than before, going further NW then turning SE bound further out west. I remember flying over downtown and then gradual turn SE....in your video I did get to see my old neighborhood and high school.

Yeah, I definitely thought we were going to bank sooner, but I'm fine with the additional flight time. Thank you!
