KTW β LTN
Which side of the plane to sit from Katowice International Airport (Katowice) to London Luton Airport (London)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a more diverse urban and industrial landscape, featuring Polish historic cities, the sprawling Ruhr region, and distant views of London's iconic skyline during the final descent.
WrocΕaw Cityscape
Aerial views of the 'City of Bridges' and its historic market square in Western Poland.
The Ruhr Metropolis
The vast industrial heartland of Germany, visible as a continuous urban sprawl from Dortmund to Duisburg.
Rotterdam Port
The massive shipping infrastructure and container terminals of Europe's largest seaport.
Thames Estuary
The widening mouth of the River Thames where it meets the North Sea near the UK coast.
London Skyline
On clear days, the distant skyscrapers of the City of London and the Shard are visible to the south.
Choose an evening flight to see the Ruhr Valley illuminated. Seat yourself away from the wing for an unobstructed view of London's landmarks during the descent into Luton.
Harz Mountains
The highest mountain range in Northern Germany, known for its dense forests and the Brocken peak.
Dutch Polders
The intricate geometric patterns of reclaimed land and canals characteristic of the Netherlands.
North Sea Wind Farms
Expansive arrays of offshore wind turbines creating a striking pattern on the water's surface.
East Anglian Coast
The sandy beaches and coastal towns of Essex and Suffolk as the plane enters UK airspace.
St Albans Cathedral
A historic landmark with its massive Norman tower, visible just minutes before landing.
A morning flight provides the best lighting for the Dutch coast without glare. Look for the wind farms approximately 20 minutes before landfall in the UK.
