Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Warsaw Chopin Airport (Warsaw)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior perspective of the Dutch and German Frisian Islands, the Elbe River estuary near Hamburg, and the scenic lake districts of Northern Poland.
Irish Sea Crossing
Deep blue waters and potential sightings of the Isle of Man to the North during the initial cruise phase.
Wadden Sea & Frisian Islands
A stunning UNESCO World Heritage site featuring a chain of barrier islands and intricate tidal flats along the Dutch and German coasts.
Elbe River Estuary
The massive shipping lanes leading into the Port of Hamburg and the lush Altes Land region.
Mecklenburg Lake District
A mosaic of over a thousand lakes and dense forests across Northeast Germany.
Pomeranian Countryside
The characteristic patchwork of agricultural fields and small forests as you enter Polish airspace.
Choose the left side for optimal lighting during afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side. This side is particularly rewarding for spotting the unique geography of the North Sea coastline. Keep your camera ready about 45-60 minutes into the flight for the Dutch coast.
Dublin Bay & Wicklow Mountains
Exceptional views of Dublin city, the port, and the rolling green hills of Wicklow immediately after takeoff.
English Midlands
A birds-eye view of the industrial and urban clusters of central England, often including the Peak District's southern edge.
Ruhr Metropolitan Region
One of Europe's most densely populated areas, visible as a continuous urban sprawl in Western Germany.
Berlin Surroundings
On clear days, the distant skyline of Berlin and its surrounding Brandenburg forests can be spotted to the North.
Vistula River
The winding path of Poland's longest river as the aircraft maneuvers for its final approach into Warsaw Chopin.
The right side is best for departures to see Dublin City. During winter months, this side receives the most sunlight, which is great for warmth but can cause glare on the windows. Watch for the Vistula River during the descent as it signals your arrival into Warsaw.
