DOH → CPH
Which side of the plane to sit from Hamad International Airport (Doha) to Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior mix of dramatic geological formations like the Zagros Mountains and iconic engineering marvels like the Oresund Bridge during the descent into Copenhagen.
Zagros Mountains
Incredible folded rock formations and massive ridges visible across the Persian Gulf in Iran.
Black Sea Coast
The scenic transition where the Anatolian plateau meets the deep blue waters of the Black Sea.
Baltic Archipelago
Clusters of small islands and coastal inlets as the aircraft begins its descent over Northern Europe.
Oresund Bridge
The famous bridge and tunnel system connecting Sweden and Denmark, often visible during the final approach to CPH.
Zealand Coastline
A patchwork of Danish farmland and coastal villages as the plane turns for its final landing sequence.
The right side is ideal for morning departures to avoid direct sun while viewing the Zagros mountains. On approach to CPH, sit here for the best chance to see the Oresund Bridge and the Swedish coast if the wind dictates a landing from the south or east.
Doha West Bay
Stunning aerial views of the Pearl-Qatar and the futuristic skyline of downtown Doha shortly after takeoff.
Mesopotamian Basin
The winding path of the Euphrates River cutting through the arid landscapes of Iraq.
Taurus Mountains
Rugged, snow-capped peaks of southern Turkey providing a stark contrast to the desert behind you.
Carpathian Mountains
Dense green forests and curved mountain ridges as the flight crosses into Eastern Europe.
Central European Cities
On clear days, views of major urban centers like Warsaw or Berlin depending on the specific airway used.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to enjoy the golden hour glow over Europe, though be mindful of direct sun glare. This side is better for capturing the scale of the Doha skyline if the flight departs towards the north.
