LPL → LDY
Which side of the plane to sit from Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool) to City of Derry Airport (Londonderry)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the iconic Liverpool skyline at departure and the stunning Causeway Coast upon arrival in Northern Ireland.
Liverpool City Center
Exceptional views of the historic waterfront, Royal Albert Dock, and the Liver Building shortly after takeoff.
Snaefell Peak
The highest point on the Isle of Man is often clearly visible to the north during the Irish Sea crossing.
Causeway Coast
Breathtaking views of the North Antrim cliffs, Portstewart, and Portrush during the descent.
Lough Foyle
A beautiful sweep over the lough that marks the border between Northern Ireland and County Donegal.
The right side is essential for viewing the North Antrim coastline. Sit behind the wing for unobstructed views of the Causeway Coast. In winter, late afternoon flights offer a spectacular sunset over the Inishowen Peninsula.
Mersey Estuary
Aerial views of the Wirral Peninsula and the industrial shipping channels of the River Mersey.
Isle of Man (South)
The southern coastline of the Isle of Man, including the Calf of Man, is often visible mid-flight.
Sperrin Mountains
Rolling landscapes and peaks of the Sperrins visible south of the airport during the final approach.
Choose the left side for better lighting during morning flights to avoid direct glare. It provides a clearer view of the Isle of Man's southern tip if the flight path tracks slightly north.
