Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the industrial Rhine-Ruhr region, the scenic Harz mountains, and a more dramatic approach into Wroclaw over the Oder River.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🚤

Thames Estuary

Excellent views of the Kent coastline and the mouth of the Thames shortly after takeoff from Luton.

🏭

Rhine-Ruhr Megacity

Fly over the industrial heartland of Germany, seeing the dense urban centers of Essen and Dortmund.

⛰️

Harz Mountains

Spot the Brocken, the highest peak in Northern Germany, often shrouded in mist or snow during winter.

🏰

Saxon Landscapes

The rolling hills and historic architecture of the Saxony region near the German-Polish border.

⛪

Wroclaw Old Town

During the final approach, look for the spires of Ostrow Tumski and the vibrant colors of the Market Square.

Sit on the right for the best chance to see the Sudetes mountains in the far distance to the south. For morning flights, be prepared for some sun glare. The approach into WRO often banks from the south, giving the right side a perfect panoramic view of the Oder River bridges and the city's historic center.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🌊

North Sea Transition

Watch the transition from the English coast to the vast North Sea, often dotted with massive shipping vessels.

🌬️

Offshore Wind Farms

Clear views of extensive wind turbine arrays located off the coasts of the UK and the Netherlands.

🚜

Northern German Plains

A patchwork of neatly organized agricultural fields stretching across the Lower Saxony region.

🏙️

Distant Berlin

On very clear days, the distant silhouette of Berlin's TV tower and urban sprawl may be visible to the north.

🌲

Lower Silesian Forests

The dense, deep green pine forests of western Poland as the descent into Wroclaw begins.

The left side is preferable for evening flights to avoid the direct glare of the setting sun. It offers a calm, scenic view of the North German landscape, but lacks the specific landmarks found on the right. Look out for the Dutch coastline approximately 30-40 minutes after departure.
