Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

While both sides offer diverse European views, the left side provides a superior perspective of Central European cities and the iconic London skyline during the approach into Luton.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
πŸ™οΈ

KrakΓ³w

Aerial view of the Vistula River and the historic Polish city center.

🏒

Frankfurt am Main

Glittering glass towers of Germany's financial hub visible from cruising altitude.

πŸ‡§πŸ‡ͺ

Brussels Metropolis

The dense urban sprawl and landmarks of the Belgian capital.

🌊

English Channel

The narrow crossing between the European continent and the British Isles.

🎑

Greater London

Panoramic views of the Thames, The Shard, and the London Eye during descent.

Sit on the left for the best views of the London skyline during the standard arrival patterns into Luton. On late afternoon flights, the sun will be behind you for most of the westward journey, reducing glare and providing optimal lighting for photography of the European landscape.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
πŸŒ‡

Kiev Cityscape

Immediate views of the Dnieper River and Kiev's golden domes after takeoff.

πŸŒ†

Warsaw Skyline

The modern skyscrapers and the Palace of Culture and Science in Poland's capital.

Dutch Coastline

Intricate canal systems and the unique geography of the Netherlands' shore.

🌬️

North Sea Wind Farms

Massive offshore renewable energy arrays scattered across the water.

🌾

East Anglian Fens

The distinctively flat, grid-like agricultural patterns of eastern England.

The right side is ideal for morning departures from Kiev to catch the sunrise reflecting off the Dnieper River. It also offers the best view of the Dutch coastline and the industrial North Sea traffic before crossing into English airspace over East Anglia.
