Which side of the plane to sit from London Stansted Airport (London) to Billund Airport (Billund)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view during the approach to Billund, often providing a direct look at the colorful LEGOLAND park and the sprawling Danish agricultural landscape.
Offshore Wind Farms
Vast arrays of wind turbines like East Anglia One visible in the North Sea, showcasing green energy infrastructure.
North Sea Horizon
Uninterrupted views of the horizon, particularly stunning during early morning flights as the sun rises over the water.
LEGOLAND Billund
On final approach, you can often spot the distinct primary colors and miniature layouts of the famous theme park.
Billund Town
A clear view of the 'Capital of Children', including the modern LEGO House architecture near the center.
STN Terminal
Depending on takeoff direction, a great view of the Foster + Partners designed Stansted terminal building.
The right side is the winner for landing; sit here to see LEGOLAND and the LEGO House as the plane descends. For morning flights, this side will be very bright, so bring sunglasses. The offshore wind farms are most impressive when viewed from this side mid-flight.
Essex Countryside
Aerial views of the rolling green fields and historic villages surrounding Stansted immediately after takeoff.
East Anglian Coast
The dramatic transition from land to the North Sea, typically crossing near Lowestoft or Great Yarmouth.
Jutland Plains
The patchwork of meticulously organized Danish farms as the plane enters Danish airspace over West Jutland.
North Sea Shipping
Spotting large cargo vessels and tankers navigating the busy maritime lanes between the UK and Scandinavia.
Choose the left side for sunset views on evening flights to avoid direct glare. It provides a great perspective of the UK coastline as you head out over the water. Keep an eye out for the sandy dunes of the Danish west coast as you approach the continent.
