Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior view of the varied European topography, including the Sudetes Mountains and the lush forests of Central Germany, followed by the rolling vineyards of the Champagne region.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏔️

Sudetes Mountains

Visible shortly after takeoff, this range marks the border between Poland and the Czech Republic.

🌲

Thuringian Forest

A dense, green mountain range in central Germany offering deep emerald hues from above.

🏰

Rhine-Main Area

Distant views of the financial hub and the winding rivers that define the German heartland.

🍇

Champagne Region

Orderly, geometric patterns of world-famous vineyards as the flight enters French airspace.

🏘️

Parisian Outer Suburbs

On the final approach to Beauvais, the sprawl of northern Paris and the Oise river valley become visible.

Opt for the left side during afternoon flights to witness a spectacular sunset over Western Europe. Keep an eye out for the distinctive ridge lines of the Karkonosze mountains within the first 20 minutes of flight. Seasonal snow on the Sudetes makes for excellent winter photography.

Right Side Highlights
6.7
🏙️

Dresden and Elbe River

A beautiful view of the historic city and the winding Elbe river in Saxony.

⛰️

Harz Mountains

A large, isolated mountain block visible to the north while traversing central Germany.

🌾

Picardy Plains

The vast, open agricultural landscapes of northern France characterized by large, colorful fields.

💧

Somme Valley

The historic river and its surrounding wetlands provide a shimmering contrast to the landscape near landing.

The right side is ideal for morning flights as it avoids direct sun glare. It offers a clearer view of the flat North European Plain and the industrial heartlands of Germany from a distance. Look for the distinct change in field patterns when crossing from German to French territory.
