Yorkshire Heritage Coast
Views of the dramatic cliffs near Whitby and the ruins of Scarborough Castle perched on the headland.
Tyne and Wear Estuaries
Panoramic views of the industrial heritage and modern skyline of Newcastle and Sunderland as you cross the River Tyne.
Holy Island of Lindisfarne
A clear view of the historic tidal island, featuring its famous 16th-century castle and ancient priory ruins.
St Andrews Coastline
The legendary Old Course and the historic university town of St Andrews visible along the Fife coast.
Scottish Highlands Silhouette
On clear days, the distant peaks of the Cairngorms offer a stunning backdrop to the west of the flight path.
Sit on the left side for morning flights to have the sun behind you, providing perfectly lit views of the Northumberland coast. Look specifically for the massive silhouette of Bamburgh Castle shortly after passing the Tyne. Use a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze distorting your photos of the Firth of Forth.

The North Sea
Vast expanses of the deep blue North Sea, often dotted with international shipping vessels and tankers.
Offshore Wind Farms
Massive arrays of wind turbines, including the Neart na Gaoithe project, appearing as white geometric patterns on the water.
Aberdeen Harbour Approach
As the plane banks for its final descent, look for the busy oil industry supply vessels and the Girdle Ness Lighthouse.
The right side is best for observing the scale of the North Sea's maritime activity. If flying during the late afternoon in winter, you may catch the reflection of a low sun on the water. During the final approach into ABZ, the right side offers a unique perspective of the rugged Aberdeenshire cliffs just before touchdown.
