==''Halo 2''==
The '''[[Phantom]] Riding [[Glitch]]''' can be performed in both [[Halo 2]] and [[Halo 3]]. It allows the player to travel within a Phantom. However, the player will die, either by falling off or being pulled into a death barrier.

===Outskirts===
==[[Halo 2]]==
Riding a Phantom is easy in [[Outskirts (level)|Outskirts]]. You should have the [[Halo 2 skulls#Sputnik|Sputnik Skull]] activated. Simply:
 
#Drive a {{Pattern|Karo'etba|Ghost}} through the level until you get to the beginning of the tunnel.

A similar trick can be done on [[Halo 2]] on the [[campaign]] level [[Metropolis (level)|Metropolis]] although you will eventually fall off the Phantom.
 
==== The Bridge ====
#Hijack a Banshee.
#Jump on top of one of the Phantoms.
#Enjoy the ride.

You can also ride on a Phantom by highjacking a [[Banshee]] and doing the same procedure that you would do to get the [[Scarab Gun]].

===Quarantine Zone===
==[[Halo 3]]==
It is possible to ride the Phantom that follows you in [[Quarantine Zone]]. To do this, have the Sputnik Skull activated. When you get onto the elevator, go to the back and quickly grenade jump. If you land correctly, you will stay on the Phantom. However, after a while, the Phantom will speed up and you will fall to your death.

In the [[campaign]] level [[Crow's Nest (Level)|Crow's Nest]] you can ride on of the [[Phantoms]] and it will take you out of the map.
==''Halo 3''==
{{Main|Halo 3}}
===Sierra 117===
At the chapter ''Quid Pro Quo'' in [[Sierra 117 (level)|Sierra 117]], you can get onto the roof of the building where [[Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]] is being held; there should be a Phantom dropping off [[Covenant]] forces. From that position, kill the [[Grunt]] manning the Plasma Cannon, and jump towards the turret while holding '''RB'''. Now press '''RB''' again and jump backwards. You should now be inside of the Phantom.
 
===Crow's Nest===
In [[Crow's Nest]], when you reach the hangar, there will be little metal arches that can be jumped onto. Jump onto the very first one to the left and wait for the Phantom to enter. When it gets nearby, hold '''RB''' and jump towards the side-mounted {{Pattern|Pek|plasma cannon}} to grab it. Now press '''RB''' again and jump backwards. You should now be inside of the Phantom.
 
When the Phantom leaves, you will be thrown to the back. Hold forward and you should be able to move. After that, quickly get back on the turret. The Phantom will fly for a little bit until it eventually drops. After that, you can flip it with '''RB''' and use it like a catapult.
 
There is another way to get in, however. When you enter the hangar, grab one of the Deployable Covers near the door. Get on one of the metal arches, then face down. Drop the Deployable Cover, and at the same time, jump, so that you land on it when it activates. When the Phantom docks, jump off the shield and into the Phantom. This way is easier than the first, because you won't have to risk falling through the Phantom when you dismount the Plasma Cannon. However, you still need to mount the Plasma Cannons when the Phantom is outside of the hangar.
 
===The Covenant===
After deactivating third tower on [[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]], quickly run along the right side towards the green [[Covenant Separatist]] [[Phantom]], kill the [[Elite]] on the turret, and then grab it with '''RB'''. Stay on the turret. The Phantom will engage [[Active Camo]], and after this point, it will be deleted when you let go of the turret.


It is also possible to remain on the Phantom after it engages Active Camo by attempting to walk into the [[Gravity Lift]]. When the camouflage engages, you will glitch into a rider position. You will continue to ride until the Phantom reaches the edge of the map, then you will sink at a constant rate (not fall) until you enter the water and die.
====Procedure====
#Jump on to one of the yellow clamps inside the hanger where you save a few [[Marine]]s.
#When the [[Phantom]] comes jump on top of it and grab one of the [[Plasma Cannon]]s, (This is easier if you place a [[Deployable Cover]] on of the clamps).
#Leave the turret while pressing back on the analog stick and jump
#When you hit the invisible wall you will be pushed towards the middle of the Phantom, when this happens, get back onto the Plasma Cannon.
#The Phantom will take you out of the map without getting you killed by the death barrier.
