Which side of the plane to sit from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen) to Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Copenhagen city center during takeoff and the stunning coastline of the North Sea during the early cruise phase.
Copenhagen Center
Direct views of the Tivoli Gardens, Christiansborg Palace, and the iconic city harbor upon takeoff.
Wadden Sea
The unique intertidal zone and the Frisian Islands along the German and Dutch coastlines.
Dutch Waterways
The intricate network of canals and polders characteristic of the Netherlands landscape.
Picardy Fields
Large-scale agricultural geometry of Northern France as the aircraft approaches the Paris basin.
CDG Terminals
The iconic donut-shaped Terminal 1 architecture is often visible on the final approach into Paris.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the North Sea. Keep an eye out early for the Great Belt Bridge if the flight path takes a more westerly route across Denmark.
Øresund Bridge
A massive engineering marvel connecting Copenhagen to Malmö, Sweden, visible shortly after departure.
Hamburg Port
Aerial view of one of Europe's largest and busiest maritime hubs as the flight crosses Northern Germany.
The Ardennes
Rolling hills and dense forest patches crossing from Belgium into the French border region.
Reims Surroundings
The historic Champagne region with its distinct vineyard patterns visible during the initial descent.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side provides the best view of the Øresund bridge if the plane departs towards the east before banking south.
