BGY โ DUB
Which side of the plane to sit from Il Caravaggio International Airport (Bergamo) to Dublin Airport (Dublin)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a direct line of sight to the highest peaks of the Central Swiss Alps and provides the most iconic views of Dublin's urban sprawl upon arrival.
Bernese Oberland
Spectacular aerial perspectives of the Eiger, Mรถnch, and Jungfrau glaciers in central Switzerland.
Paris Cityscape
On exceptionally clear days, the massive urban footprint of Paris is visible to the north.
Snowdonia National Park
The dramatic, rocky peaks of North Wales as the flight crosses the UK toward the Irish Sea.
Dublin City & Port
Unmatched views of the River Liffey, the Poolbeg Chimneys, and the city center during the final descent.
Select the right side for the most dramatic glacier views during the first 30 minutes. As you approach Ireland, the right side usually provides a better view of the Irish coastline and the city of Dublin, especially if the aircraft is landing on Runway 28L/R, which is the most frequent configuration.
Pennine Alps
Close-up views of the Italian-Swiss border peaks including the Monte Rosa massif shortly after takeoff.
Lake Geneva
The expansive crescent-shaped lake and the city of Geneva visible as you exit Swiss airspace.
Loire Valley
Glimpses of the historic French river valley known for its verdant landscapes and chateaus.
Celtic Sea
The vast transition from continental Europe toward the Irish coast.
The left side is preferable during morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep your camera ready about 10 minutes after takeoff for the sharpest views of the high Alpine ridges. On arrival, this side offers views of the rugged Wicklow Mountains if the plane approaches from the south.
