Baltic Coastline
Stunning views of the sandy coastline along the Polish and German borders, where the land meets the blue Baltic Sea.
Rügen Island
The distinctive Jasmund National Park with its white chalk cliffs on Germany's largest island.
North Sea Wind Farms
Massive offshore wind arrays, including the London Array, dotting the water as you approach the English coast.
Suffolk Coastline
The scenic estuaries of the rivers Stour and Orwell, and the container port of Felixstowe during the descent.
East Anglian Countryside
Classic English pastoral landscapes with rolling green fields and timber-framed villages as you touch down in Essex.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the North Sea without direct glare. Look out for the white cliffs of Rügen approximately 45-60 minutes into the flight. On clear days, the offshore wind farms provide a futuristic and impressive scale of engineering before crossing into UK airspace.

Kaunas & Nemunas River
Aerial view of the historic Kaunas old town and the confluence of the Nemunas and Neris rivers shortly after takeoff.
Polish Heartland
The intricate mosaic of agricultural fields and small villages across Northern Poland and the Wielkopolska region.
Dutch Polders
Vibrant landscape patterns and complex canal systems visible as the flight crosses over the Netherlands.
Greater London Fringe
Distant views of the London urban sprawl and the Thames Estuary if the arrival path loops south of the airport.
Sit on the left if you prefer looking at land patterns and urban development. During midday flights, this side experiences more direct sunlight and glare, so keep the window shade partially down. If the flight path takes a southerly approach into Stansted, you may see the Dartford Crossing and the outskirts of London.
