Nowa Huta District
The unique socialist-realist urban layout of eastern Krakow visible shortly after departure.
Gdansk Bay
The sprawling maritime landscape of the Tri-City area, including the major ports of Gdansk and Gdynia.
Hel Peninsula
A remarkably thin 35km-long sand spit that is one of the most recognizable geographic features from the air.
Visby & Gotland
The medieval walls of Visby on the island of Gotland are often visible if the flight path tracks slightly east.
Stockholm Archipelago
A spectacular view of thousands of granite islands and islets as the plane descends toward Arlanda.
The right side is the definitive choice for scenic enthusiasts. For the best experience, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, perfectly illuminating the Hel Peninsula and the emerald waters of the Stockholm Archipelago. Look out for large Baltic ferries crossing between Poland and Sweden.

Wawel Royal Castle
A glimpse of Krakow's historic center and the Vistula River bend immediately after takeoff from KRK.
Kuyavian Plains
The geometric patterns of central Poland's agricultural heartland stretching toward the horizon.
Öland Bridge
One of the longest bridges in Europe connecting mainland Sweden to the island of Öland across the Kalmar Strait.
Lake Mälaren
Sweden's third-largest lake, characterized by its complex network of bays and lush green islands during the final approach.
Choose this side if you are flying during a late afternoon summer flight to avoid the direct glare of the sun. It provides a great perspective of the Swedish mainland's dense forests and rural architecture as you cross the coastline near Kalmar.
