LCY β BLL
Which side of the plane to sit from London City Airport (London) to Billund Airport (Billund)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the Thames Estuary's massive wind farms and the UNESCO-protected Wadden Sea mudflats upon entering Danish airspace.
The O2 Arena
Iconic aerial view of the Millennium Dome and the Greenwich Peninsula shortly after takeoff.
London Array
Look down for the massive grid of the world's largest offshore wind farms in the outer Thames Estuary.
Wadden Sea
Stunning views of the tidal flats and sandbanks of the Wadden Sea National Park near Esbjerg.
Port of Esbjerg
Denmark's main North Sea gateway, featuring vast shipping terminals and offshore support vessels.
Danish Countryside
A scenic patchwork of meticulously organized farmland and forests as you descend into the heart of Jutland.
The right side is excellent for maritime enthusiasts; the wind farms and shipping lanes are highly visible. Afternoon flights on this side enjoy the sun behind the aircraft, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Danish Wadden Sea islands like FanΓΈ.
Canary Wharf
Immediate views of London's financial district skyscrapers if departing on Runway 09.
Thames Estuary
The industrial and natural landscape of the northern Essex coastline unfolding during the climb.
West Jutland
The first glimpse of Denmark's sandy western coastline and the North Sea breakers.
Legoland Billund
The colorful patterns of the original Legoland park are often visible on the northern final approach.
Sit on the left for the best views of the London skyline during a standard eastbound departure. During the landing phase at BLL, the left side is generally better for spotting the Lego House and Legoland landmarks just before touchdown.
