In [[Heroic]] and [[Legendary]], the only point in doing this level is because you cannot get the Campaign Complete for the Heroic and Legendary Achievements without doing so.

====External Glitches====
*You can get your gamercard to say that you're playing the campaign on [[Legendary]] if you set the difficulty on Legendary, complete the level and quit out.'' ''''Note: this will not work if you have completed the campaign''.'''
====[[Easter Egg]]s====
*Sometimes, if you look closely, you can see that one of the Marines has the appearance of [[Jason Jones]].

*The name may be a reference to Halo's predecessor, [[Marathon]], an earlier [[Bungie]] game, in which "Arrival" is also the name of the [[w:c:marathongame:Arrival (Level)|first level]].

*Master Chief's landing is reminiscent of the landing of Spartan Red Team when they had to land on [[Reach]] with only their suits for protection in [[Halo: First Strike]] and when [[Maria-062]] jumps from space while testing the Mark VI armor.

*Contrary to what players might think, the Master Chief did ''not'' land on Earth using just his [[MJOLNIR]] armor as protection. At the other end of the crater is a metallic object, suggesting the Chief ripped it out of the Forerunner Dreadnought and rode it down to [[Earth]]. A page in [[The Art of Halo 3]] supports this theory. Also, the metallic object appears to be a Forerunner door of some sort due to the support bracing on one side, as any player that remembers certain levels of Halo 2 will tell you.

*The Master Chief appears for the first time in ''Halo 3'' at precisely 1 minute and 17 seconds (1:17) into the cutscene, when the camera descends to reveal his outstretched arm.

*Johnson's speech in the level is not affected by the [[IWHBYD]] skull, only the difficulty.
*It should be noted that in Arrival, re-entry occurs before sunrise, and in the Landfall miniseries, re-entry occurs after sunrise (though they ''are'' in different places). The Landfall miniseries takes place many miles east of the re-entry point in Arrival, accounting for the time difference.

*Arrival is the only level in the Halo series that is just a cutscene where you can look around, but not move.
*This is the shortest level in ''Halo 3'' and in the Halo trilogy.
*The Assault Rifle that is given to Master Chief in the cutscene has no ammo and always points north.
*Some of the Marines seem to have bent forearms, often when bending their wrists.
*Interestingly, even though John weighs around 1000 lbs in his armor, and is immensly strong, Sgt. Johnson shows no discomfort, or even a stagger when Chief uses him for leverage. This could be another hint of Johnson's [[ORION Project|Spartan-I]] status, or simply an oversight.
*The Legendary symbol that shows completion of this level is presented to reflect more light when looking at it from the Campaign selection screen.
