BOH → DUB
Which side of the plane to sit from Bournemouth Airport (Bournemouth) to Dublin Airport (Dublin)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior sequence of landmarks, including the ancient New Forest, the impressive Severn Bridges, and the iconic aerial approach over Howth Head into Dublin Bay.
The New Forest
Expansive views of ancient woodland and heathland immediately following takeoff from BOH.
Severn Bridges
A clear view of the two major suspension bridges connecting England and Wales over the Severn Estuary.
Brecon Beacons
The dramatic sandstone peaks and valleys of South Wales, often topped with clouds or light snow in winter.
Cardigan Bay
The vast curve of the Welsh coastline stretching toward the Llyn Peninsula to the north.
Howth Head
The iconic peninsula guarding Dublin Bay, providing a picturesque landmark just before touchdown.
This is the most consistent side for landmarks. For the best views of the Severn Estuary and the Welsh mountains, try to book a seat forward of the wing. On a clear day, you may even spot the distant peaks of Snowdonia far to the north.
Poole Harbour
One of the world's largest natural harbours, visible immediately after departure from Bournemouth.
The Gower Peninsula
Stunning views of the UK's first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty along the South Wales coast.
Wicklow Mountains
The rugged, peat-covered peaks of the 'Garden of Ireland' appearing as you cross the Irish Sea.
Dun Laoghaire
The historic Victorian pier and harbour area visible during the final descent into Dublin.
Choose the left side for evening flights to enjoy the sunset over the Irish Sea. It provides excellent views of the southern approach into Dublin if the wind is coming from the west, allowing for a sweep past the Wicklow coastline.
