DUB → GDN
Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport (Gdansk)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior viewing experience, featuring the stunning Frisian Island chain along the Dutch and German coasts and the iconic Hel Peninsula during the final descent into Gdansk.
Dublin Bay & Howth
Clear views of the Howth Peninsula and the Irish Sea immediately after departure from DUB.
Cumbrian Mountains
Distant views of the English Lake District peaks as the flight transits Northern England.
Frisian Islands
The distinctive chain of barrier islands stretching along the coastlines of the Netherlands and Germany.
Hel Peninsula
A spectacular 35km-long sandbar 'sickle' that is a primary landmark when approaching the Bay of Gdansk.
Gdynia Port
The industrial docks and shipping traffic of the Tricity area during the final approach phase.
Book a window seat on the left for the most dramatic entry into Poland. The Hel Peninsula is a must-see; it usually appears 10-15 minutes before landing. On morning flights, the sun will be on the opposite side, reducing glare for photography of the North Sea islands.
Snowdonia Peaks
The rugged mountainous terrain of North Wales visible during the crossing to the English mainland.
The Peak District
Green rolling hills and national park landscapes of central England as the route heads toward the North Sea.
Hamburg & Northern Germany
Distant views of major German urban centers and the flat, fertile plains of the north.
Kashubian Lake District
A dense mosaic of forests and over 700 lakes located just west of Gdansk, visible during descent.
Gdansk Old Town
If the flight approaches from the south, views of the historic center and the iconic shipyard cranes.
The right side is ideal for catching the sunset on evening flights. It offers better views of the North Wales coastline and the sprawling Kashubian lake region. Ensure your window is clean to spot the small, glittering lakes in Northern Poland as you descend.
