BRSRZE

Which side of the plane to sit from Bristol Airport (Bristol) to Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport (Rzeszow)?

Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the London metropolis shortly after takeoff from Bristol, followed by the intricate coastline of the Netherlands and the vast northern plains of Germany and Poland.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Greater London

Aerial views of the Thames Estuary and the sprawling northern suburbs of the UK capital.

🌊

Dutch Delta

The complex network of islands and waterways of the Zeeland province and the Port of Rotterdam.

⚓

German North Sea Coast

Distant views of the Frisian Islands and the busy shipping lanes leading toward Hamburg.

🗼

Berlin Metropolitan Area

The expansive urban footprint of Germany's capital city is often visible to the north mid-flight.

🌾

Wielkopolska Plains

The classic patchwork of Polish agriculture and dense forests as you cross into Eastern Europe.

For the best experience, choose a window seat in front of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. On morning flights, the sun will be on the right side, meaning the left side will have perfect, glare-free lighting for photography of the Dutch coast and Polish lowlands. Watch for the distinctive shape of the IJsselmeer lake as you cross the Netherlands.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏖️

English Channel Coast

Views of the Kent coastline and the narrowest point of the Dover Strait.

🌲

Ardennes Forest

The rolling green hills and deep river valleys of southeastern Belgium and Luxembourg.

🏭

The Ruhr Valley

Germany's industrial core, characterized by a dense cluster of cities like Cologne and Dortmund.

⛰️

Sudetes Mountains

The jagged peaks forming the natural border between Poland and the Czech Republic.

🏰

Kraków & Vistula River

During the descent into Rzeszów, you may catch glimpses of the historic city of Kraków to the south.

The right side is ideal for spotting the more mountainous terrain of Central Europe. If the flight path takes a southerly route, the Sudetes and even the distant Tatra Mountains can be seen. Note that on afternoon flights, this side will face the sun, which may require closing the window shade to block intense glare.
