Beautiful views of the freshwater lake and the southern suburbs of Stockholm shortly after takeoff.
Hamburg Port
The intricate industrial landscape of Germany's busiest port is often visible mid-flight.

Paris Landmarks
On clear days, the Eiffel Tower and the Sacré-Cœur are visible during the descent into CDG.
Request a window seat away from the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Paris skyline. The descent typically approaches from the east, making the left side optimal for seeing the Eiffel Tower. In winter, opt for a mid-day flight to ensure enough light to see the German landscapes.
