EBB → LHR
Which side of the plane to sit from Entebbe International Airport (Entebbe) to London Heathrow Airport (London)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is the clear winner for this route, offering a front-row seat to the winding Nile River throughout Africa and the most iconic views of the London skyline during the final approach into Heathrow.

The White Nile
Witness the dramatic path of the White Nile as it carves through the landscapes of Uganda and South Sudan.
Nile Delta & Cairo
Clear views of the lush green vegetation surrounding the Nile contrasting sharply with the desert sands near Egypt.
Central European Alps
A majestic panorama of the snow-capped Swiss and Austrian mountain ranges during the European crossing.
English Channel
Views of the busy shipping lanes and the famous White Cliffs of Dover as you enter UK airspace.
London City Skyline
On the standard 'Easterly' approach, enjoy world-class views of The Shard, Tower Bridge, and the London Eye.
Secure a seat toward the front of the cabin to ensure the wing doesn't block your view of the Thames. For the best experience, monitor the flight map as you cross the English Channel; if the plane begins a holding pattern over North London, the Right Side will provide a continuous tour of the city's landmarks. Morning flights offer the best lighting for the African leg of the trip.

Lake Victoria Shoreline
Immediate views after takeoff of the vast shoreline and the Ssese Islands in the world's second-largest freshwater lake.
Sahara Dunes
Starkly beautiful views of the Libyan Desert's rolling sand seas and jagged rock formations.
Mediterranean Crossing
The transition from the African continent to the deep azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
Western Alps
Distant but impressive views of the French and Swiss Alps, including potential glimpses of Mont Blanc.
French Interior
A patchwork quilt of the French countryside and historic chateaus as you head toward the English Channel.
The left side is ideal for photography on daytime flights as it avoids the harshest direct sunlight for the majority of the northbound journey. In the evening, this side offers spectacular sunset views over the desert. It is also the best side to avoid the glare off the wing if the sun is high in the East.
