Dublin Coastline
Aerial views of Howth Head and the small islands of Ireland's Eye and Lambay shortly after takeoff.
Isle of Arran
Dramatic views of the 'Sleeping Warrior' mountain peaks rising out of the Firth of Clyde.
Loch Lomond
Sightings of Scotland's largest freshwater loch and the surrounding Trossachs National Park.
Southern Highlands
The rugged terrain and deep glens marking the start of the Scottish Highlands transition.
Sit on the left side to capture the high-contrast landscapes of the Highlands. This side is particularly spectacular during evening flights when the setting sun illuminates the peaks of Arran and the western lochs. Aim for a seat ahead of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the coastline during the initial climb.

Mourne Mountains
The granite peaks of County Down are visible across the Irish Sea on clear days.
Edinburgh & Forth Bridges
Distances views of the Scottish capital and the iconic red steelwork of the Forth Bridge.
St Andrews
The historic town known as the home of golf, clearly visible along the Fife coastline.
North Sea Coast
The rugged cliffs of Angus and the busy shipping lanes approaching Aberdeen's harbor.
The right side is best for those interested in human landmarks and coastal geography. It provides the best perspective of the Firth of Forth and the university town of St Andrews. On a morning flight, the sun will be on this side, which can cause glare, so polarizing sunglasses are recommended for the best viewing experience.
