Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic peaks of Snowdonia in Wales and the scenic drumlin landscapes of Ireland shortly after takeoff.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏞️

Clew Bay Vistas

Shortly after departure from Knock, look back to see the unique 'sunken' drumlin islands of the Mayo coastline.

🏔️

Snowdonia (Eryri)

The flight path typically passes directly over or just north of the rugged, glaciated peaks of North Wales.

🏙️

Birmingham & The Midlands

Excellent views of the UK's second city and the sprawling industrial heartland of England during mid-cruise.

🌳

Chiltern Hills

A beautiful view of the chalk escarpments and ancient woodlands during the descent into the London area.

The right side is essential for viewing the Welsh mountains. Afternoon flights provide the best lighting for photography over Snowdonia. Keep your window shade up during the final 15 minutes to spot the rural estates of Buckinghamshire.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Irish Sea Crossing

Expansive views of the maritime traffic lanes connecting the Republic of Ireland with the United Kingdom.

🏙️

Liverpool Bay

Clear views of the Mersey Estuary, the Port of Liverpool, and the coastal windmills of Burbo Bank.

🏗️

Manchester Urban Area

The dense urban sprawl and distinct skyscraper cluster of Manchester's city center are visible to the north.

🌄

The Peak District

On clear days, the rolling limestone plateaus and dark peak moors of Derbyshire are visible in the distance.

Choose a seat in front of the wing for unobstructed views of the English Midlands. This side is particularly scenic during morning flights when the sun illuminates the northern coastline of Wales and the Mersey.
