DUB â BOJ
Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Burgas Airport (Bourgas)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides the most dramatic approach to the Black Sea and superior views of the Danube River's major curves through Central Europe.
Dublin Bay
Aerial views of the Irish coastline and the Poolbeg chimneys immediately after takeoff.
Snowdonia National Park
Distant views of the rugged peaks of North Wales if the flight path tracks northerly.
London Skyline
A potential glimpse of the sprawling Greater London area when crossing the English Channel.
Rhine River
Views of the winding Rhine and the industrial heartlands of Western Germany.
Budapest
The stunning layout of the Hungarian capital and the massive Parliament building along the Danube.
Black Sea Coast
A scenic sweep over the coastline as the aircraft turns for final approach into Burgas.
Choose the left side on afternoon departures to avoid direct glare from the south. Look out for the massive bends of the Danube near Budapest and the dramatic transition from the Bulgarian plains to the Black Sea coastline during descent. This side usually gets the better view of the Burgas city center during the landing pattern.
The Alps
Distant but majestic views of the jagged, snow-capped Alpine peaks to the south over Germany and Austria.
Hungarian Puszta
The vast, flat landscapes of the Great Hungarian Plain stretching toward the horizon.
Balkan Mountains
Rugged, forested terrain and deep valleys as you enter Bulgarian airspace.
Bucharest
The expansive urban layout of the Romanian capital visible to the north-east of the flight path.
Black Sea Horizon
The vast blue expanse of the sea stretching toward Turkey and Georgia.
On clear winter days, the right side offers a distant but sharp view of the snowy Alps to the south while crossing Germany and Austria. Watch for the rugged Balkan Mountains appearing on the right as the plane begins its initial descent into the Burgas region. This side is ideal for morning flights if you enjoy watching the sunrise over the European continent.
