Which side of the plane to sit from Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport (Gdansk) to Lübeck Blankensee Airport (Luebeck)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point over the Baltic Sea coastline, featuring the iconic Hel Peninsula and the famous islands of Rügen and Usedom.
Hel Peninsula
A remarkably thin, 35km-long sandbar separating the Bay of Puck from the open Baltic Sea.
Usedom Island
The sun-drenched border island featuring the famous imperial spas of Bansin, Heringsdorf, and Ahlbeck.
Rügen Chalk Cliffs
The striking white Jasmund National Park cliffs, a centerpiece of German coastal scenery.
Wismar Bay
Picturesque maritime scenery featuring the island of Poel and the historic Hanseatic coastline.
Darss Peninsula
Part of the Western Pomerania Lagoon Area National Park, known for its wild, pristine beaches.
The Hel Peninsula appears almost immediately after takeoff; be ready with your camera. Late afternoon flights are ideal for the right side, as the setting sun illuminates the white chalk cliffs of Rügen and the sandy beaches of the German coast in a golden hue.
Gdańsk Cityscape
Aerial view of the historic Main Town and the industrial shipyards shortly after departure.
Kashubian Lake District
Rolling hills, dense forests, and numerous glacial lakes of the Pomeranian Voivodeship.
Szczecin Lagoon
The southern portion of the lagoon where the Oder River meets the Baltic Sea.
Schwerin Castle
Often visible during the descent, situated on an island in Lake Schwerin.
Wakenitz River
The winding river known as the 'Amazon of the North' leading into Lübeck.
Sit behind the wing for an unobstructed view of the Polish forest canopy. For the best lighting over the Mecklenburg Lake District, choose a morning flight to avoid the glare of the southern sun. Keep an eye out for the historic spires of Lübeck as you make your final approach.
