DUBPOZ

Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Poznań-Ławica Airport (Poznan)?

Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers spectacular views of the Dutch and German coastlines, including the unique Frisian Islands and the Elbe River, with better lighting for northward-facing shots.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🇮🇪

Dublin Bay & Howth

Aerial view of the iconic Howth Head and the northern arc of Dublin Bay shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

The Peak District

The rugged landscapes of Northern England's first national park, often visible as the flight crosses the UK.

🏝️

Wadden Sea & Frisian Islands

Distinctive chain of islands along the Dutch and German coast, showcasing tidal flats and sandbars.

🚢

Elbe River Estuary

The massive waterway leading to Hamburg, often filled with large container ships heading to port.

🏙️

Poznań City Center

On final approach from the west, the left side typically offers a glimpse of the Old Town and the Cathedral Island.

Sit on the left to avoid direct southern sun glare during the day. This side is superior for spotting the intricate patterns of the Dutch and German coastlines about 60-80 minutes into the flight. If the flight arrives from the northwest, you'll have the best view of the Warta River winding into the city.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🏟️

Mersey Estuary

Views of the Liverpool skyline, the historic docks, and the vast industrial landscape along the river.

🌉

The Humber Bridge

One of the world's longest suspension bridges can often be seen as the aircraft leaves the UK coast.

🏘️

Bremen & Weser River

The dense urban layout of Bremen and the winding Weser river cutting through Northern Germany.

🌲

Western Polish Forests

Large stretches of pine forests and agricultural patchwork characteristic of the Greater Poland region.

The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to catch the golden hour over the Polish plains. Be aware that during the mid-day, the sun will be on this side, which may cause glare on the window. Watch for the industrial ports of Northern England roughly 20-30 minutes after departure.
