Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Baltic coastline, the Frisian Islands, and a more frequent panoramic view of the London skyline during the descent into Luton.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Baltic Coastline

Stunning views of the Curonian Spit and the sandy beaches of the Polish coast near Gdansk.

🚢

Kiel Canal

Watch for the world's most frequented artificial waterway cutting across the base of the Jutland Peninsula.

🏝️

Frisian Islands

The unique chain of barrier islands along the German and Dutch coasts surrounded by the Wadden Sea.

🎡

London Cityscape

On clear days, the descent often provides a sweeping view of the Shard, the O2 Arena, and the Thames river.

Choose the right side for morning flights for the best lighting conditions. Keep your camera ready as you pass the Dutch coast; the geometric patterns of the polders and islands are highly photogenic. During the Luton approach, this side frequently captures the iconic London skyline from a distance.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Northern Poland

Bird's-eye views of the urban layouts of Poznan or the surrounding Masurian Lake District if the route deviates south.

🚜

German Heartland

Expansive views of the structured agricultural grids and massive wind farms across northern Germany.

⚓

Port of Rotterdam

One of the world's largest shipping hubs is often visible as you transition from the Netherlands to the North Sea.

🏰

Essex Countryside

Green pastures and historic estates of the English countryside as the flight begins its final descent.

The left side is preferable for evening flights to avoid the direct glare of the setting sun. It offers better views of the dense city lights of the Benelux region during night operations.
