Search flights from PVK to MAN
Ionian Islands
Breathtaking views of Lefkada and the turquoise coastal waters of the Ambracian Gulf immediately after takeoff.
Central Apennines
The rugged mountain spine of Italy, featuring limestone peaks and deep valleys as you cross the peninsula.
Western Alps
Unrivaled views of the highest peaks in Europe, often passing near the snow-capped massif of Mont Blanc.
Paris Basin
Distant views of the sprawling French capital and the winding Seine River if the flight path tracks slightly east.
English Channel
The narrow crossing from Continental Europe to the UK, typically filled with ferry and cargo ship traffic.
For the best photography, choose a seat in front of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On afternoon flights, the sun will be on the left side, which may cause glare; morning flights offer the best lighting for the Alpine scenery. Watch for the 'Blue Lagoon' of Lefkada within the first 5 minutes of flight.

Northern France

Greater Manchester
Views of the Manchester city skyline and the surrounding Pennine hills during the final approach into MAN.
The right side is excellent for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind you, providing perfectly lit landscapes. During the descent into Manchester, if the wind is from the west (the usual direction), sit here to see the city center during the final turn toward the runway.
