Belfast Lough
Clear views of the deep water inlet and the coastal towns of Holywood and Bangor immediately after takeoff.
Mull of Galloway
On clear days, the southernmost point of Scotland is visible across the North Channel.
Lake District Peaks
Stunning aerial perspectives of Scafell Pike and the long, thin ribbon of Windermere as you cross the Cumbrian coast.
Yorkshire Dales
The iconic limestone scars and green valleys of the Dales, including the peak of Ingleborough.
Otley Chevin
A prominent forest ridge that signals the final approach into Leeds Bradford Airport.
Morning flights are ideal for the left side as the sun is in the south, illuminating the Lake District mountains perfectly. In winter, look for the snow-capped summits of the Cumbrian fells which stand out sharply against the valleys.
