Frankfurt Skyline
Spectacular views of Germany's only major skyscraper cluster immediately after takeoff.
Hamburg Port
The massive industrial port complex and the Elbe river snaking through Germany's second city.
Lübeck Bay
The white sandy beaches of the Baltic coast and the historic city of Lübeck.
Fehmarn Belt
The narrow strait between Germany and Denmark, currently the site of a major tunnel project.
Swedish Archipelago
The rocky islands and dense pine forests of the Swedish west coast during the final approach.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct glare while viewing the German interior. Keep your camera ready about 25-30 minutes into the flight for the best view of Hamburg. On the approach to Landvetter, this side often provides a clearer view of the deep green Swedish forests and the numerous lakes surrounding Gothenburg.

Hessian Highlands
Dense green forests and rolling hills of central Germany shortly after takeoff.
Bremen & Weser River
A clear view of the Weser river winding through the urban landscape of Bremen.
Wadden Sea
The unique tidal flats and North Sea coastline of Lower Saxony visible in the distance.
Jutland Peninsula
The flat, agricultural landscape of western Denmark and its northern coastal reaches.
Choose the left side for evening flights to catch the sunset over the North Sea. This side is also excellent for spotting the extensive offshore wind farms located in the German Bight and along the Danish coast. Ensure a window seat away from the wing for the best view of the Jutland coastline during the descent phase.
