KRK → LPL
Which side of the plane to sit from Kraków John Paul II International Airport (Krakow) to Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers a superior variety of urban and coastal landmarks, including detailed views of Wroclaw, Dresden, the German Harz Mountains, and the intricate Dutch coastline before approaching Northern England.
Wroclaw
A fantastic aerial view of the Oder River and the historic 'City of a Hundred Bridges' in western Poland.
Dresden
Look for the Elbe River winding through the Saxon capital, known for its iconic baroque architecture.
Harz National Park
Aerial perspective of the Brocken peak and the dense, dark forests of northern Germany's highest range.
Dutch Coastline
Intricate views of the Netherlands' polders, dikes, and the sandy islands of the Wadden Sea.
Greater Manchester
Detailed views of the Manchester cityscape, including iconic football stadiums, just before the turn into Liverpool.
The right side is ideal for spotting major European cities. On evening flights, this side offers spectacular sunset views over the North Sea. For the best photography of the Dutch coast, a seat behind the wing is recommended to avoid heat haze from the engines.
Sudetes Mountains
Enjoy views of the Karkonosze range on the Polish-Czech border shortly after departure from Krakow.
Prague Skyline
On clear days, look south to spot the distant spires and historic layout of the Czech capital.
Southern North Sea
Observation of the busy shipping lanes and offshore wind farms as the flight crosses from mainland Europe.
English Midlands
Views of the rolling green landscapes and urban clusters of central England during the initial descent.
Mersey Estuary
Excellent views of the Runcorn bridges and the industrial heritage of the Wirral Peninsula on final approach.
Choose the left side for better natural lighting during daytime flights, as the sun remains to the south. This side is particularly scenic during the final moments of the flight when the plane maneuvers over the Mersey. Use a polarising filter for photos to reduce haze over the North Sea.
