Which side of the plane to sit from Blackpool International Airport (Blackpool) to Dublin Airport (Dublin)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an immediate view of Blackpool's iconic landmarks and a superior perspective of the dramatic Howth Head peninsula during the approach into Dublin.
Blackpool Tower
A stunning top-down view of the 158-meter landmark and the surrounding Golden Mile.
Pleasure Beach
The colorful layout of the historic amusement park is clearly visible during the initial climb.
Isle of Man
Look north across the Irish Sea to spot the silhouette of Snaefell mountain in the distance.
Howth Head
A breathtaking view of the rugged cliffs, Baily Lighthouse, and Ireland's Eye island on approach.
Sit on the right for the best views of Blackpool’s seafront immediately after takeoff. If the flight arrives via a northern approach (Runway 28R), you will get a perfect view of the Howth peninsula and the northern suburbs of Malahide and Portmarnock.
Lytham St Annes
Aerial views of the sandy beaches and Victorian architecture of the Fylde coast south of the airport.
Ribble Estuary
The sprawling tidal marshes and wetlands where the River Ribble meets the Irish Sea.
Snowdonia Peaks
On clear days, the distant silhouette of the North Wales mountains is visible across the water.
Dun Laoghaire
The historic granite harbour and coastal suburbs of South Dublin during the final descent.
Choose this side for views of the South Dublin coastline and the Wicklow Mountains during the approach. In the morning, this side will be shaded, providing better conditions for glare-free photography of the Irish Sea.
