Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of Belgium's historic 'Art Cities' including Bruges and Ghent, followed by a sweeping view of the Brussels skyline and the rolling hills of Hesbaye.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🏰

Medieval Bruges

A stunning view of the 'Venice of the North' with its concentric canal rings and medieval belfry.

🏛️

Ghent Towers

Look for the iconic three towers of Ghent: Saint Nicholas' Church, the Belfry, and Saint Bavo's Cathedral.

🏙️

Brussels Skyline

A distant but clear view of the capital's skyscrapers and the metallic spheres of the Atomium.

🍎

Haspengouw Orchards

During spring, the landscape turns white and pink with fruit blossoms in Belgium's primary fruit-growing region.

🌊

The Meuse River

The winding river valley cutting through the limestone hills as you enter the Liège basin.

🚆

Liège-Guillemins

On final approach, look for the futuristic, white-ribbed roof of the Calatrava-designed train station.

The right side is generally the scenic winner for this short hop across Flanders and Wallonia. Morning flights are best on this side to avoid the harsh northern sun glare. The flight is very short (under 45 minutes), so be ready with your camera immediately after takeoff to capture Bruges, which appears within the first 5-8 minutes.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🛳️

Port of Zeebrugge

One of Europe's most important modern ports visible along the coastline shortly after departure.

🚤

Albert Canal

The massive shipping canal connecting the Meuse river to the Port of Antwerp visible cutting through the landscape.

🎓

Leuven

Aerial perspective of the historic university city, including the Gothic Town Hall and Great Beguinage.

🏭

Industrial Liège

A view of the steel works and logistical hubs that define the northern outskirts of the Liège region.

🌳

Kempen Landscape

The flatter, more forested and sandy regions of northern Belgium stretching toward the Dutch border.

The left side is excellent for viewing the intricate network of canals and the industrial backbone of the country. For evening flights, this side catches the sunset reflections off the North Sea and the Albert Canal. Keep an eye out for the distinctively large Stella Artois brewery buildings when passing Leuven.
