Copenhagen Cityscape
Immediate views of the colorful harbor, canals, and historic spires of the Danish capital.
Wadden Sea
The UNESCO-listed tidal flats and the chain of Frisian Islands stretching along the coast.
The Eiffel Tower
Unrivaled views of Paris's most famous landmark when the flight paths circle north of the city for landing.
The Seine River
The winding silver ribbon of the Seine as it flows through the heart of Paris towards the sea.
The right side is the 'money side' for this route. Request a window seat here for the chance to see the Eiffel Tower during the descent. Evening flights are particularly recommended as the 'City of Light' lives up to its name, especially when approaching from the north.

Sit on the left for morning flights to benefit from soft lighting on the Øresund Bridge without sun glare. This side is also better for observing the interior landscape of the European continent and the transition from Germanic to Gallic geography.
