DUB → BSL
Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport (Mulhouse)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for the English Channel crossings and the scenic approach into the Rhine Valley with views toward the Black Forest.
Dublin Bay
Vibrant views of Howth Head and the Dublin coastline immediately after departure.
Snowdonia National Park
The dramatic peaks and glacial valleys of North Wales are often visible after crossing the sea.
White Cliffs of Dover
A chance to see the iconic chalk cliffs as the flight leaves the UK for mainland Europe.
Champagne Region
The structured patchwork of world-famous vineyards across Northern France.
The Black Forest
Dark, dense evergreen forests across the German border visible during the final descent.
On morning flights, the left side is shaded from the direct sun, making it easier to spot the White Cliffs and the Rhine. When landing at BSL from the north, keep an eye out for the Vosges mountains transitioning into the Rhine plain.
Wicklow Mountains
Stunning views of the rugged granite peaks south of Dublin shortly after takeoff.
Greater London
Depending on the air traffic corridor, the distant skyline of London can often be spotted.
Jura Mountains
The long, limestone ridges of the Jura range provide a dramatic backdrop near the Swiss border.
The Rhine River
The mighty river serves as a geographic guide as you approach the tri-national border area.
Tri-National View
Unique aerial perspective of where France, Germany, and Switzerland converge at the airport.
The right side is ideal for capturing the Wicklow Mountains if the plane turns south upon departure. On approach, this side offers the best views of the Jura mountains and the city of Basel itself if the aircraft enters from the south.
