Dublin Bay
A stunning view of the Irish capital, Howth Head, and the coastline immediately after departure from DUB.
Snowdonia Peaks
The rugged mountains of North Wales are often visible as the flight crosses the Welsh coast.
The Ruhr Valley
Germany's industrial core, featuring a dense cluster of cities like Dortmund and Essen from high altitude.
Harz Mountains
The highest mountain range in Northern Germany, providing a distinct silhouette against the surrounding plains.
Silesian Highlands
The rolling terrain and historical industrial landscapes of Upper Silesia during the final descent into Katowice.
The right side is ideal for catching the sunset if you are on an evening flight. During the descent, keep an eye out for the Sudetes mountains in the distance to the south. If taking off to the east, you get the most iconic view of Dublin city. In winter, the Harz mountains are frequently snow-capped, providing a sharp contrast to the grey industrial towns nearby.

The Irish Sea
Expansive views of the water separating Ireland and Great Britain shortly after takeoff.
Liverpool Bay
Aerial perspective of the Mersey estuary and the historic maritime architecture of the English Northwest.
Wadden Sea
The unique intertidal zone and islands along the northern Dutch and German coastlines.
Port of Hamburg
Views of one of Europe's largest shipping hubs and the winding Elbe River as it heads toward the sea.
Wielkopolska Forests
Lush green stretches of the Polish lowlands as the flight enters Polish airspace from the west.
Sit toward the front to avoid wing obstruction. This side is particularly scenic during morning flights when the sun is in the south, illuminating the northern coastlines of Europe clearly. Look out for the North Sea wind farms which are often visible as small white dots on the water.
