Views of the French coastline, including potential sightings of La Rochelle or the islands of RΓ© and OlΓ©ron.

πŸ™οΈ

Leeds City Center

The most iconic view of the Leeds skyline and Elland Road stadium often appears on the right during the final approach.

⛰️

The Peak District

The dark peaks and moorlands of Northern England provide a dramatic backdrop just before landing.

Sit on the right for the best photographic opportunities of the Canary Islands right after departure. On the final approach into LBA, the right side usually provides the most direct view of the urban landscape of West Yorkshire. Late afternoon flights provide beautiful 'golden hour' lighting over the French coast.
