Our Recommendation
7.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior perspective of Dublin Bay upon departure and provides the best opportunity to see the Brussels skyline and the North Sea coast during the descent into Belgium.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Dublin Bay

Panoramic views of the Howth Peninsula and the Irish Sea coastline immediately after takeoff.

🏙️

Liverpool Waterfront

Clear views of the Mersey estuary and the historic docks as the flight crosses the English coast.

🚢

Thames Estuary

Aerial view of the massive London Gateway port and the wind farms located in the North Sea.

🏰

Ghent and Antwerp

Distant views of the medieval towers of Ghent and the expansive industrial port of Antwerp.

🏙️

Brussels Skyline

As the aircraft maneuvers for Charleroi, the capital city and the Atomium are often visible to the north.

For the best experience, book a seat on morning flights to avoid sun glare. Look for the 'thumb' shape of Howth Head right after takeoff from Dublin. During the descent, keep your eyes peeled for the distinct urban sprawl of Brussels to your left.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Wicklow Mountains

Beautiful green peaks south of Dublin, visible if the aircraft takes a more southerly departure route.

🏔️

Snowdonia National Park

Direct views of the highest peaks in Wales, including the rugged summit of Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa).

🌆

Greater London

The vast sprawl of the UK capital is often visible to the south during the crossing of the Home Counties.

⚪

White Cliffs of Dover

The iconic white chalk coastline is a highlight during the crossing from England to the European mainland.

🌲

Ardennes Foothills

Rolling green hills and forested areas typical of the Wallonia region as you approach Charleroi.

The right side is ideal for mountain lovers, providing the closest views of the Welsh Highlands. During the English Channel crossing, you can often see both the English and French coastlines simultaneously if the visibility is high. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting for the cliffs of Dover.
