NYO → POZ
Which side of the plane to sit from Stockholm Skavsta Airport (Stockholm) to Poznań-Ławica Airport (Poznan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is generally superior on this southward route as it offers views of the Danish island of Bornholm and the scenic lagoons and coastal features of Western Poland.
Bornholm Island
The prominent Danish island appears as a green jewel in the middle of the Baltic Sea.
Pomeranian Coast
The long, white sandy beaches stretching from Świnoujście toward the east.
Szczecin Lagoon
The massive body of water where the Oder River meets the Baltic, shared with Germany.
Wolin National Park
Dense coastal forests and steep cliffs visible as the plane enters Polish airspace.
Ławica Approach
Views of the western residential districts and the lake systems surrounding Poznań.
The right side is the 'scenic choice' for identifying landmarks. Bornholm is the primary highlight roughly 25 minutes into the flight. On clear days, you may even spot the German coastline to the far west. This side is best for afternoon flights when the sun is in the west, illuminating the Polish coastline.
Södermanland Archipelago
The dense network of rocky islands and inlets immediately visible after departing Skavsta.
Central Baltic Sea
A vast blue expanse that dominates the middle portion of the flight.
Poznań Old Town
Clear views of the historic city center and the Cathedral Island during the final descent.
Greater Poland Fields
The colorful agricultural patchwork quilt of the Wielkopolska region.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. It provides a better perspective of the Swedish coast during takeoff and the eastern urban sprawl of Poznań upon landing. Look for the Vistula Spit far in the distance to the southeast during peak altitude.
