DUB → MCO
Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Orlando International Airport (Orlando)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is significantly better for this transatlantic route, offering potential views of Greenland's ice caps, the rugged Canadian coastline, and a scenic sweep down the U.S. Eastern Seaboard without the direct glare of the sun.

Wild Atlantic Way
The jagged cliffs and bays of the West of Ireland, including the Aran Islands and Galway Bay.
Greenland Ice Sheet
On more northerly tracks, witness the massive glaciers and fjords of Southern Greenland.
Newfoundland Coast
The rocky, dramatic shoreline of eastern Canada, often featuring icebergs in the spring months.
Cape Cod & Islands
The distinctive hooked shape of Massachusetts' coast and the islands of Martha's Vineyard.
The Outer Banks
The long, thin barrier islands of North Carolina stretching out into the Atlantic Ocean.
Space Coast
Views of Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Center launch pads as you cross the Florida coastline.
The right side (Starboard) is the 'cool' side for this flight, as it faces north away from the sun. This provides much clearer visibility for photography. For the best chance to see Greenland, check the flight's NAT (North Atlantic Track) on a tracking app before boarding; a more northerly route makes this side a 10/10 experience.

Wicklow Mountains
Dramatic granite peaks and rolling hills south of Dublin visible immediately after takeoff.
North Atlantic Expanse
A vast, deep-blue view of the ocean, which can offer beautiful cloud formations and ship trails.
Florida Wetlands
Intricate patterns of swamps and lakes as the aircraft maneuvers for approach into Orlando.
Golden Hour Glow
Stunning sunset colors over the horizon as you arrive in the subtropics during the late afternoon.
The left side (Port) faces south on this westbound flight, meaning you will deal with direct sunlight and glare for the majority of the journey. Keep your window shade partially closed during the mid-flight to avoid heat. It is best for seeing the southern Florida landscape on the final approach if the wind is from the north.
