LPL β WAW
Which side of the plane to sit from Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool) to Warsaw Chopin Airport (Warsaw)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior coastal views departing the UK, a better perspective of the Frisian Islands along the North Sea, and a panoramic view of the Polish lakelands before landing.
Mersey Estuary
Aerial view of the Liverpool docks, the Wirral Peninsula, and the Irish Sea coastline immediately after takeoff.
Peak District
The rugged moorlands and deep valleys of the UK's first National Park visible during the initial climb.
Humber Estuary
The unique geographic feature of Spurn Point, a narrow sand spit reaching into the North Sea.
East Frisian Islands
A stunning chain of sandy islands along the German coast surrounded by the Wadden Sea mudflats.
Berlin Metropolitan Area
Views of the sprawling northern suburbs of the German capital and the Havel river system.
Polish Lake District
The sparkling glacial lakes of Western Poland, particularly around the Drawsko region, visible during descent.
Sit on the left to avoid direct sunlight on this eastbound route, which is especially important for morning flights. In the winter, the low sun angle highlights the textures of the Peak District and the Polish plains. Watch for the 'Green Heart' of the Netherlands as you cross into mainland Europe.
Cheshire Plain
A bird's-eye view of the iconic English patchwork quilt of green fields and rural villages.
The Wash
The massive square-mouthed bay on the east coast of England, known for its extensive salt marshes.
The Ruhr Valley
In the distance to the south, the industrial heartland of Germany can be spotted on clear days.
PoznaΕ
Clear views of the Warta River and the historic center of one of Poland's oldest cities.
Kampinos National Park
A vast forest complex located just west of Warsaw, indicating you are minutes from landing.
Warsaw Skyline
If landing on Runway 11, the right side provides a spectacular view of the city's modern skyscrapers.
The right side is prone to glare as the sun remains to the south for the duration of the flight. However, it is the best side for spotting the urban centers of PoznaΕ and the high-rise architecture of central Warsaw during the final approach into Chopin Airport.
