Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side of the aircraft offers superior views of the mountain ranges in Southern Poland and the Czech border, as well as a high probability of seeing the London skyline and the Thames Estuary during the approach into Luton.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏔️

The High Tatras

On clear days, look south shortly after takeoff to see the jagged peaks of the High Tatras on the Slovakian border.

⛰️

Sudetes Mountains

Panoramic views of the Karkonosze range and Sniezka peak as you fly along the Polish-Czech border region.

🏙️

Saxony Landscapes

Clear views of Dresden and the Elbe river valley as the flight crosses into eastern Germany.

🌊

English Channel

A classic crossing view of the busy shipping lanes between mainland Europe and the UK coast near Dover.

🏢

London Skyline

During the descent into Luton, the left side often provides a distant but clear view of the Shard, the City, and Canary Wharf.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Afternoon flights are ideal on this side as the sun will be behind or above the plane, providing excellent lighting for the Sudetes and the approach into London without harsh glare.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🛰️

Berlin Skyline

Depending on the northern airway, you may see the iconic Fernsehturm and the sprawling landscape of the German capital.

🛶

Vistula River

Aerial views of the winding Vistula, Poland's longest river, shortly after departing the Rzeszow area.

⚓

Dutch Coastline

Views of the complex Dutch polders, coastal defenses, and the North Sea wind farms.

🌾

East Anglian Fens

The distinct geometric patterns of the agricultural fields in Eastern England as you cross the UK coast.

🌳

The Chilterns

Beautiful views of the rolling green hills and beech woodlands of the Chilterns AONB during the final approach.

The right side is best for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. Keep an eye out for the North Sea wind farms, which look spectacular from cruising altitude. If the flight takes a more northerly route, the views of the Dutch coast are the highlight.
