Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Hannover Airport (Hannover)?

Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side of the aircraft offers superior views of the Irish coastline upon takeoff, the rugged Peak District in England, and the unique geographical formations of the Frisian Islands along the Dutch and German coastlines.

Left Side Highlights

Dublin Bay & Howth Head

Vivid views of the Irish coastline and the rocky cliffs of the Howth peninsula immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

The Peak District

The rolling green hills and limestone valleys of northern England's famous national park.

🏖️

West Frisian Islands

A stunning chain of islands and sandbars along the Wadden Sea coast of the Netherlands and Germany.

🚢

Bremerhaven Port

Large-scale views of the container terminals and the Weser River estuary as you enter German airspace.

🏘️

Oldenburg

A clear view of this historic Lower Saxony city surrounded by lush agricultural plains.

Choose a window seat on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. During the descent, keep your eyes peeled for the distinctive tidal patterns of the Wadden Sea, which are most visible during low tide.

Right Side Highlights

⛰️

Wicklow Mountains

The granite peaks and forested valleys south of Dublin visible during the initial climb.

🏗️

Volkswagen Plant

The massive industrial complex in Wolfsburg or local Hannover production sites visible during landing.

The right side is ideal for catching the glint of the sun off the Humber Estuary in the late afternoon. It also provides the best perspective of Steinhuder Meer, which is a major landmark for the final approach into Hannover.
