Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side typically offers more dramatic views of the Belgian Ardennes and provides the most iconic perspective of Luxembourg City's historic center and deep gorges during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

North Sea Coastline

Distant views of the coastline and the industrial ports of Zeeland during the initial climb.

🌲

Belgian Ardennes

Densely forested hills and deep river valleys of Wallonia, offering a stark contrast to the flat Dutch terrain.

πŸ™οΈ

Liège Cityscape

The industrial and historic skyline of Liège centered around the Meuse river.

🏰

Luxembourg Old Town

The UNESCO-listed fortifications, the Grund district, and the dramatic Alzette river valley.

πŸŒ‰

Adolphe Bridge

The iconic stone arch bridge that connects the Gare district with the city center visible on final descent.

This is the 'scenic side' for the approach into LUX. For the best views of the Luxembourg City gorges, request a seat toward the back of the plane to ensure the wing doesn't obstruct the steep-angled view of the city center.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
πŸ™οΈ

Amsterdam Suburbs

Bird's-eye view of the Amstelveen residential areas and the Aalsmeer flower auction landscape.

🚜

North Brabant Polders

The geometric agricultural patterns and drainage canals typical of the Dutch countryside.

πŸ’§

Meuse River Valley

The winding curves of the Meuse river as it flows through the southeastern Netherlands.

πŸŒ‹

Eifel Mountains

Distant views of the undulating volcanic hills of the German Eifel region to the east.

Choose this side for morning flights to catch the sunrise over the German border. It provides excellent light for viewing the Dutch rivers, but be aware of possible glare in the late afternoon.
