Which side of the plane to sit from Aberdeen Dyce Airport (Aberdeen) to Humberside Airport (Humberside)?

The right side of the aircraft offers a spectacular tour of the British East Coast, providing clear views of iconic Scottish and Northern English landmarks, rugged cliffs, and the North York Moors.
Search flights from ABZ to HUY
Dunnottar Castle
Shortly after takeoff from Aberdeen, look for the dramatic medieval fortress perched on sea cliffs near Stonehaven.
St Andrews Coastline
Views of the famous golf links and the historic university town as you fly south over the Fife peninsula.
Holy Island
Clear sight of Lindisfarne and its castle, accessible only by a tidal causeway from the Northumberland coast.
North York Moors
A vast expanse of purple-hued heather moorland and steep valleys visible as the flight crosses into Yorkshire.
Humber Bridge
A stunning view of the massive Grade I listed suspension bridge during the descent into Humberside Airport.
The right side is significantly more scenic. Aim for an afternoon flight when the sun is in the west, illuminating the coastline and cliffs without glare. Since these flights are often on smaller turboprops at lower altitudes, the detail of landmarks like Bamburgh Castle is much better than on high-altitude jets.

North Sea Horizon
Expansive views of the North Sea with its characteristic deep blue hues and varying sea states.
Offshore Wind Farms
Aerial perspective of massive renewable energy projects including the Hornsea wind farm arrays.
Shipping Lanes
Observation of industrial shipping traffic and tankers queuing for the major ports of the Humber Estuary.
Spurn Point
On final approach, catch the unique narrow sand spit of Spurn Head stretching into the North Sea.
The left side is primarily sea-focused; sit here if you enjoy the tranquility of the ocean or want to spot maritime activity. Morning flights can suffer from heavy glare on this side, making photography difficult. It is generally the 'quieter' side for scenery.
