Berlin Metropolitan Area
Depending on the specific air corridor, you can often see the sprawling suburbs and the distinct TV Tower of the German capital.
Warsaw Skyline
A highlight of the trip is the view of Warsaw's high-rise financial district and the National Stadium on the banks of the Vistula.
Vistula River
Follow the silver ribbon of Poland's longest river as it cuts through the agricultural heartland.
Bialowieza Forest
Observe the vast expanse of one of the last and largest remaining parts of the immense primeval forest that once stretched across Europe.
Brest Border Region
See the geographic transition from the EU into Eastern Europe near the historic city of Brest.
The right side is best for afternoon flights to capture the 'Golden Hour' over the Polish plains. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes after takeoff for the best chance to see the Warsaw city center. Clear winter days offer the best contrast for spotting the sprawling urban grids against the snow.

Elbe River Valley
Early in the flight, observe the winding Elbe river as it snakes through the North German Plain.
Szczecin Lagoon
Look north to see the massive estuary where the Oder River meets the Baltic Sea.
Masurian Lake District
As you cross Northeast Poland, witness a stunning landscape of over 2,000 glacial lakes.
Naliboki Forest
Approaching Minsk, the dense, dark green canopy of one of Belarus's largest forest massifs becomes visible.
Choose the left side for better lighting during morning flights to avoid direct glare. This side is also ideal for spotting the blue glimmer of the Polish lake districts during the summer months when the sun is high.
