Bavarian Heartland
Picturesque views of the neat Bavarian agricultural patterns and small villages immediately after takeoff.
Lusatian Lake District
A massive man-made water landscape created from former open-cast mines in eastern Germany.
Poznań Skyline
Views of one of Poland's oldest cities, including its historic cathedral and busy center.
Kashubian Switzerland
The lush, lake-filled hills of the Kashubian region just south of the Tricity area.
Gdańsk Port & Shipyards
The industrial heart of the city, including massive cranes and the historic Westerplatte monument.
The right side is ideal for capturing the arrival into Gdańsk. If the plane approaches from the south, you will get an incredible view of the Main Town's red roofs and the massive St. Mary's Basilica. During winter, the Kashubian lakes often freeze, creating a beautiful white landscape.

Bohemian Forest
Dense, rolling hills of the Bayerischer Wald stretching along the German-Czech border.
Saxon Switzerland
The dramatic Elbe Sandstone Mountains and deep canyons near the border of Saxony.
Dresden Cityscape
Clear views of the Elbe river winding through the historic 'Florence on the Elbe'.
Hel Peninsula
The remarkably narrow 35km-long sandbar separating the Bay of Puck from the Baltic Sea.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the eastern sun glare. This side is prime for spotting the unique Hel Peninsula during the descent, which is one of the most geographically distinct features in Europe. Keep an eye out about 15 minutes before landing.
