POZNYO

Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior perspective of the Polish coastline, including the unique Hel Peninsula, and provides better views of the Swedish Baltic islands and the intricate Nyköping archipelago during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Vistula River Delta

Distant views of the winding Vistula river and the surrounding fertile plains as you head north through Poland.

🏖️

Hel Peninsula

A striking view of the 35km-long narrow sandbar separating the Bay of Puck from the Baltic Sea, a major Polish landmark.

🐚

Gotland and Öland

As you cross the Baltic, look for the distant shapes of Sweden's largest islands, Gotland and the elongated Öland.

⚓

Nyköping Archipelago

A stunning mosaic of thousands of small islands and skerries as the plane descends toward Skavsta Airport.

🏘️

Oxelösund Port

The industrial docks and coastal housing of Oxelösund are often clearly visible just minutes before touchdown.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh sun. The highlight is undoubtedly the Hel Peninsula; try to identify its unique 'scythe' shape about 20-25 minutes after takeoff. During the descent, the archipelago view is world-class, so have your camera ready as soon as the Swedish coast appears.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🌳

Wielkopolska Lake District

View the dense pine forests and numerous post-glacial lakes scattered across northwestern Poland shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Western Baltic Sea

The transition from the Polish mainland to the open sea, often featuring whitecaps and international cargo ships.

🏝️

Bornholm Silhouette

On clear days, the distant silhouette of the Danish island of Bornholm may be visible on the western horizon.

🇸🇪

Swedish Southern Coast

The rugged, rocky shoreline of Södermanland begins to appear as the aircraft prepares for its descent into Skavsta.

Sit here if you prefer a morning flight to avoid direct glare from the eastern sun. While mostly open water, this side offers great sunset views on late afternoon departures. Keep an eye out for wind farms situated in the Baltic waters off the German and Danish coasts.
