CDG → WRO
Which side of the plane to sit from Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris) to Copernicus Wrocław Airport (Wroclaw)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring views of Disneyland Paris shortly after takeoff, the dramatic Frankfurt skyline, the Erzgebirge mountain range, and the majestic Karkonosze mountains during the approach to Wroclaw.
Disneyland Paris
Look down quickly after departure from CDG to spot the iconic theme park and the Walt Disney Studios complex.
Rhine River
A beautiful crossing of one of Europe's most significant waterways near the city of Mainz.
Frankfurt Skyline
Excellent views of 'Mainhattan,' Germany's only major skyscraper cluster, and the massive Frankfurt Airport hub.
Erzgebirge Mountains
The scenic 'Ore Mountains' marking the natural border between Germany and the Czech Republic.
Karkonosze (Giant Mountains)
In the final 15 minutes of flight, the high peaks of the Sudetes, including Sniezka, are visible to the south.
Sit on the right for the most iconic landmarks. For the best photography, choose a late afternoon flight when the sun illuminates the Sudetes mountains to the south. Be aware that during peak summer midday flights, this side can be quite bright and warm due to direct solar exposure.
Reims & Champagne
View the historic city of Reims and the surrounding rolling vineyards of the Champagne region shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Ardennes Forest
The dense, hilly forest region spanning the borders of France, Belgium, and Luxembourg.
Leipzig
A clear view of the largest city in Saxony, recognizable by its large central station and the nearby New Lakeland area.
Lower Silesian Lowlands
The patchwork of agricultural fields and small Polish villages that define the landscape as the plane descends toward WRO.
The left side is generally quieter regarding direct sunlight on morning flights. Keep an eye out for the distinct loop of the Moselle river if the flight path tracks slightly north. This side is ideal for spotting the industrial heart of Eastern Germany near the end of the cruise phase.
