Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the German industrial heartland, the scenic Thuringian Forest, and the dramatic Ore Mountains along the Czech border, plus a better angle for the Prague city approach.

🇬🇧

London & Thames Estuary

On clear days, the distant skyline of London and the massive Thames Estuary are visible to the south.

🚢

Rotterdam Port

The sprawling infrastructure of Europe's largest seaport visible along the Dutch coastline.

🏭

The Ruhr Area

Germany's industrial powerhouse, a massive urban sprawl with iconic cooling towers and stadiums.

🌲

Thuringian Forest

Dense, dark green mountain ridges stretching across central Germany, known as the 'Green Heart'.

🏰

Ore Mountains

The Erzgebirge range marking the border between Germany and Czechia, dotted with historic mining towns.

🇨🇿

Central Bohemian Highlands

Extinct volcanic peaks and winding rivers as the aircraft descends toward Václav Havel Airport.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights as the setting sun illuminates the Thuringian peaks. During the final approach into PRG, planes often bank south, offering a stunning panoramic view of the Bohemian countryside and the Vltava river.

🌳

Peak District

Rolling hills and limestone valleys of Derbyshire visible immediately after departure from Manchester.

Harz Mountains

The northernmost range in Germany, featuring the Brocken peak often shrouded in mist.

Choose this side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. Keep a keen eye out shortly after takeoff for the 'Green Lung' of England. During the descent, you may catch a glimpse of the Elbe river valley to the north.
