LCA → LPL
Which side of the plane to sit from Larnaca International Airport (Larnaca) to Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side of the aircraft offers a more scenic journey, featuring a stunning panoramic view of the Adriatic coastline's numerous islands and a spectacular crossing over the heart of the Alps with optimal lighting.
Aegean Archipelago
Breathtaking views of the Dodecanese and Cyclades islands scattered across the turquoise Mediterranean Sea shortly after departure.
Dalmatian Coast
An extended view of the Croatian shoreline, featuring the red-roofed city of Dubrovnik and the intricate island chains of the Adriatic.
The Austrian Alps
Dramatic, close-up views of snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys as the flight path cuts northwest across Central Europe.
Rhine-Main Region
Clear views of the meandering Rhine river and the dense urban landscapes of Western Germany and the Benelux countries.
Midlands & Snowdonia
On the descent into Liverpool, catch views of the English Midlands and the distant rugged peaks of North Wales.
Sit on the left (Port side) for the best sunlight throughout the flight; as you travel northwest, the sun will be behind or to the left of the plane, illuminating the landscape perfectly. Watch for the Croatian islands about 2 hours into the flight. During the winter, the snow cover on the Alps is particularly striking on this side.
Kyrenia Mountains
Immediately after takeoff from LCA, view the sharp limestone peaks of the 'Five Finger' mountains in Northern Cyprus.
Munich & Bavaria
Opportunities to spot major Central European cities and the sprawling green plains of southern Germany.
The English Channel
A classic view of the world's busiest shipping lanes and the white cliffs of the southeastern UK coast if the route takes a southern entry.
Manchester Skyline
As the plane aligns for its final approach into John Lennon Airport, the skyline of Manchester is often visible to the northeast.
Liverpool Landmarks
On final approach, look for the iconic Liver Building and the football cathedrals of Anfield and Goodison Park if landing from the east.
The right side is excellent for views of the Kyrenia range during the initial climb. For the arrival into Liverpool, this side often provides a superior view of the city center and the docks if the aircraft performs a standard approach to Runway 27. Be aware that the sun may cause some glare during the middle portion of the journey.
