Dublin Bay
Sweeping views of Dun Laoghaire harbor and the southern Dublin suburbs immediately after takeoff.
Wicklow Mountains
The rolling green peaks of the Dublin and Wicklow mountains are visible to the south during the climb.
Blackpool Tower
The most famous landmark on the route, appearing prominently as you approach the Fylde coast.
Blackpool Pleasure Beach
Get a bird's eye view of the Big One and other major rollercoasters just before landing.
Lytham St Annes

This is the premier side for photography. Request a seat toward the rear of the aircraft to ensure the wing doesn't block your view of the Blackpool Tower. If flying between late August and early January, book an evening flight to see the Blackpool Illuminations from the air—a truly unique spectacle.
