NOCKUN

Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is superior for this route as it offers premium views of the English Lake District's peaks and the dramatic northern coastlines of Denmark and the Baltic islands.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
⛰️

Nephin Beg Range

Upon departure from Knock, view the rugged, remote wilderness of North Mayo's mountains.

🏞️

The Lake District

Clear views of Windermere, Scafell Pike, and the rolling green fells of Cumbria, England.

🌊

North Sea Crossing

Vast ocean views often dotted with massive cargo ships and offshore gas platforms.

🇩🇰

Jutland Peninsula

The northern tip of Denmark, featuring sandy dunes and the transition to the Baltic Sea.

🏝️

Bornholm Island

A high-altitude view of the Danish island known for its round churches and rocky coastline.

Sit on the left (Port side) to avoid the direct southern sun glare during the day. In winter, this side catches the soft northern light, making the Lake District peaks look particularly sharp. For the best photography of the Irish coast, ensure you are seated forward of the wing.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
💧

Lough Mask and Corrib

Large, shimmering limestone lakes of Western Ireland visible shortly after takeoff.

🌉

Humber Estuary

Spot the iconic Humber Bridge and the sprawling industrial ports of Hull and Grimsby.

🏖️

Vistula Spit

The incredibly narrow sandbar separating the Vistula Lagoon from the Baltic Sea near Poland.

🏰

Kaunas Old Town

On final approach, look for the confluence of the Nemunas and Neris rivers and the historic castle.

🏟️

Zalgiris Arena

The modern sports arena on an island in the Nemunas River is often visible just before touchdown.

The right side is ideal for the final descent into Kaunas, as the flight path often circles the city from the south. However, you will likely face the sun for most of the eastward journey; keep your window blind partially down to manage the heat and brightness.
