Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the diverse North Sea coastline, the intricate geometric Dutch polder systems, and iconic landmarks like the Atomium during the final approach into Brussels.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Lake Vättern

View the deep blue expanse of Sweden's second-largest lake as the flight heads southwest.

🏝️

East Frisian Islands

A beautiful chain of barrier islands and sandbars along the German North Sea coast.

🇳🇱

Dutch Polderlands

The unique geometric patterns of reclaimed land, dikes, and canal systems typical of the Netherlands.

🧪

The Atomium

The iconic silver 1958 World Expo landmark is often visible on the northern outskirts during descent.

⛪

Brussels City Center

A panoramic view of the Belgian capital, featuring the Palais de Justice and the Grand Place area.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the North Sea. During the descent into Brussels, keep a close watch for the Atomium; it is most prominent when the aircraft approaches from the northeast or east.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Stockholm Archipelago

Breathtaking views of thousands of forested islands surrounding the Swedish capital immediately after takeoff.

🌉

Öresund Bridge

A bird's-eye perspective of the massive bridge and tunnel system linking Malmö to Copenhagen.

🇩🇰

Secure a seat behind the wing to capture the Stockholm departure without obstruction. Morning flights on this side will face direct sunlight, which can cause glare on the window.
