Curonian Spit
Immediately after takeoff, witness this 98km long UNESCO-listed sand dune formation separating the Baltic Sea from the lagoon.
Gulf of Finland
As the flight follows the international corridor, enjoy expansive views of the Baltic Sea and the distant Estonian coastline.
Kronshtadt & Kotlin Island
See the historic naval fortress city and the golden dome of the Naval Cathedral as you pass St. Petersburg.
Lakhta Center
The tallest skyscraper in Europe stands out clearly on the northern shore of the Neva Bay.
Lake Ladoga
Pass over the southern edge of Europe's largest lake, observing its intricate shoreline and deep blue waters.
Sit on the left (A/B seats) for the best views of the Curonian Spit during departure from KGD. This side is also best for avoiding direct glare if flying in the morning hours, making it easier to spot the Lakhta Center near St. Petersburg. In winter, look for the spectacular ice patterns on Lake Ladoga.

A great view of the Pregolya River, the Cathedral, and the Baltic Arena stadium shortly after liftoff.

Rybinsk Reservoir
An enormous man-made sea that dominates the landscape as you enter the Vologda region.
Severstal Steel Mill
One of the largest industrial complexes in the world, identifying Cherepovets from miles away with its massive scale.
Sheksna River
The winding river that connects the region's industrial heart to the Volga-Baltic Waterway.
The right side (E/F seats) is ideal for the final approach into Cherepovets, as it usually offers a direct view of the massive industrial architecture of the Severstal plant. If flying at sunset, the right side will catch the golden hour light over the Rybinsk Reservoir, which is exceptionally photogenic.
