AMS → HUY
Which side of the plane to sit from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Humberside Airport (Humberside)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the iconic Spurn Point sand spit and a direct line of sight to the magnificent Humber Bridge during the final approach into Humberside.
Amsterdam Canals
On northern departures, enjoy a stunning aerial view of the concentric canal rings and historic city center.
Offshore Wind Farms
Fly directly over vast arrays of white turbines standing in the turquoise and grey waters of the North Sea.
Spurn Point
Marvel at the unique 3.5-mile long curved sand spit that narrowy separates the North Sea from the Humber.
Humber Bridge
A magnificent view of this suspension bridge, once the world's longest, spanning the wide muddy waters of the estuary.
Hull Cityfront
The 'Deep' aquarium and the historic waterfront of Kingston upon Hull are clearly visible during the descent.
Sit on the right for the most iconic geographical features. The approach into HUY often involves a turn over the estuary, providing a perfect photo opportunity of Spurn Point. In winter, early morning flights offer spectacular sunrise colors over the North Sea.
Port of IJmuiden
View the massive sea locks and industrial gateway to the North Sea Canal shortly after takeoff.
North Sea Shipping
Spot dense concentrations of cargo vessels and tankers navigating the busy English Channel approach.
Cleethorpes Coastline
The traditional British seaside resort and its long sandy beach are visible as the plane crosses the English coast.
Grimsby Docks
Industrial docks and the historic Dock Tower mark the entrance to the Humber Estuary.
For the best lighting on the Dutch polders and the Lincolnshire coast, choose an afternoon flight to avoid direct morning sun glare. This side is better for viewing the industrial heart of the Humber.
