DUB → YYZ
Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Lester B. Pearson International Airport (Toronto)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is typically superior for this route because it provides a high probability of viewing the majestic glaciers of Southern Greenland and the rugged, iceberg-dotted waters of the Labrador Sea.
Greenland Icecap
Spectacular views of the jagged mountains and massive ice sheets of Cape Farewell at Greenland's southern tip.
Iceberg Alley
Spotting white specks of icebergs floating in the deep blue waters of the Labrador Sea during spring and summer months.
Labrador Wilderness
Thousands of miles of untouched boreal forest, ancient rock formations, and glacial lakes across the Canadian Shield.
St. Lawrence Estuary
The massive scale of the St. Lawrence River as it widens into the Gulf, serving as a primary maritime artery.
Ontario Highlands
The transition from the wild forests of the north to the agricultural landscapes of Southern Ontario.
Northern Lights
On late evening or overnight flights, this side offers the best vantage point for viewing the Aurora Borealis at high latitudes.
The Right Side is the 'Greenland Side.' Approximately 3.5 to 4 hours after takeoff, keep your window shade open to catch the glaciers. For the best photography, avoid sitting directly over the wing. If flying in winter or late autumn, keep an eye out for the Aurora Borealis during the middle portion of the flight.
Irish Atlantic Coast
Dramatic views of the rugged cliffs and green pastures of County Clare and Galway as the aircraft exits Irish airspace.
North Atlantic Expanse
A vast perspective of the ocean, often featuring complex cloud patterns and the occasional glint of sunlight on the water.
Newfoundland Coast
The first point of North American landfall, showing the rocky inlets and coastal settlements of eastern Canada.
Toronto Skyline
Breathtaking views of the CN Tower and the downtown financial district when landing on the 24 runways at YYZ.
Choose the left side for the best lighting conditions during afternoon arrivals into Toronto, as the sun will be behind or above the aircraft. This side is also the best for a potential view of the Toronto city center during the final descent, provided the wind dictates an approach from the northeast.
