LIM-UIO (noon)
UIO-SCY (noon)
GPS-UIO (afternoon, possible sunset)
UIO-ATL (red eye)
ATL-LAX (morning)

Thanks so much!
Approach to Quito is beautiful. Below is from seat 2F on the right side of a Copa 737. Looking back at photos I also sat on the right side in and out of SCY...seems outbound was foggy, inbound I saw only sea until immediately before landing so left side might be preferable.
