LTN → DUB
Which side of the plane to sit from London Luton Airport (London) to Dublin Airport (Dublin)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides the most dramatic views of the Welsh mountains and a superior perspective of the Dublin coastline and the Wicklow Mountains during the final descent.
Chiltern Hills
Rolling green landscapes and designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty immediately after takeoff from Luton.
Snowdonia (Eryri)
Dramatic views of the highest peaks in Wales, including Snowdon, as the flight crosses the Welsh coastline.
Menai Strait
The narrow, swirling stretch of water separating the mainland of Wales from the Isle of Anglesey.
Dublin Bay South
Panoramic views of Dun Laoghaire harbor, the Dublin Mountains, and the southern suburbs during the approach.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see the rugged Welsh terrain. For evening flights, this side catches the sunset over the Irish Sea. On the approach to DUB, if the plane lands from the east (Runway 28L/R), you will have an incredible view of the city center and the Wicklow Mountains to the south.
Milton Keynes
The distinct grid-iron layout of this famous 'New Town' is clearly visible shortly after departure.
The Midlands
A patchwork of English farmland and industrial heritage sites stretching toward the Peak District.
Anglesey North Coast
View the northern cliffs of the island and the iconic South Stack Lighthouse if the flight path allows.
Howth Head
The rugged peninsula and Baily Lighthouse that mark the northern entrance to Dublin Bay.
The right side is ideal for spotting the Isle of Man in the distance on clear days during the Irish Sea crossing. When landing towards the west, this side offers a great view of the northern coastal towns like Malahide and Portmarnock. Afternoon flights avoid the direct glare of the sun on this side.
