Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🎡

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.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌉

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.

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.
