Which side of the plane to sit from Václav Havel Airport Prague (Prague) to East Midlands Airport (East Midlands)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more diverse view of major European landmarks, including the Prague city center upon departure and the sprawling urban landscapes of the Ruhr and the English Midlands.
Prague Old Town
Stunning aerial views of the Vltava river and the historic city center shortly after takeoff.
Pilsen
The historic home of Pilsner beer and its large industrial and brewery complexes.
Ruhr Valley
The massive industrial heartland of Germany, featuring dense urban clusters and the Rhine river.
Dutch Polders
The intricately designed reclaimed land and water management systems of the Netherlands.
London Horizon
On clear days, the silhouette of the UK capital may be visible far to the south during the sea crossing.
Leicester City
A detailed view of the city and its sporting arenas during the final descent into the airport.
Sit on the left for the best views of Prague's architecture immediately after rotation. For evening flights, this side catches the warm glow of the setting sun over the North Sea. Look for the distinct industrial light patterns of the Ruhr area during night flights.
Ore Mountains
The rugged, forested mountain range forming the natural border between Czechia and Saxony.
Leipzig Area
Views of the East German plains and the major cargo hub of Leipzig/Halle Airport.
Amsterdam
The iconic concentric canal rings and the North Sea Canal are often visible to the north.
Offshore Wind Farms
Vast arrays of white turbines dotting the blue expanse of the North Sea.
The Wash
The unique square-shaped estuary on the East Anglian coast, a major geographical landmark.
Lincoln Cathedral
The historic spire of one of Europe's tallest medieval buildings stands out in the flat landscape.
The right side is ideal for seeing the mountain border with Germany shortly after takeoff. Keep your camera ready as you reach the English coast for the dramatic colors of 'The Wash' estuary. If the flight path takes a northerly approach, Lincoln's historic skyline is a highlight.
