HUY → NWI
Which side of the plane to sit from Humberside Airport (Humberside) to Norwich International Airport (Norwich)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior coastal scenery, featuring the iconic Spurn Point sand spit and the diverse ecosystems of The Wash and North Norfolk coast.
Humber Estuary
Initial climb provides a wide view of the industrial and natural blend of the Humber mouth.
Spurn Point
A unique, narrow sand spit stretching into the sea, one of the UK's most distinct coastal features.
Skegness Coastline
Clear views of the Lincolnshire seaside resorts and the massive wind farms offshore.
The Wash
A massive bay and estuary system known for its significant wildlife and shifting sandbanks.
North Norfolk Coast
Vistas of the golden sands of Holkham and the salt marshes of Blakeney Point.
Watch for Spurn Point immediately after departure from HUY. Morning flights provide the best lighting for the coastline without sun glare. During winter months, look for large flocks of migratory birds over the mudflats of The Wash.
Lincolnshire Wolds
Rolling hills and green valleys of this designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Boston Stump
The towering lantern tower of St Botolph's Church, a landmark visible for miles across the fens.
King's Lynn
The historic medieval port town situated on the River Great Ouse as you enter Norfolk.
Sandringham Estate
The Royal Family's private country retreat nestled in the Norfolk countryside.
Norwich City
On final approach, catch views of the historic cathedral spire and the city's flint architecture.
The right side is preferred for spotting inland landmarks and the geometric patterns of the Fens. Late afternoon flights provide a warm glow over the Lincolnshire Wolds. Keep your camera ready on descent for the Norwich Cathedral spire, which dominates the skyline.
