The Peak District
Excellent views of the rolling hills, dales, and reservoirs of England's first national park.
Manchester & Liverpool
Spot the distinct urban landscapes of the North West and the winding River Mersey before crossing the coast.
Isle of Man
On a clear northerly track, the silhouette of the island and Snaefell mountain may be visible to the north.
Howth Head
A dramatic final approach feature featuring the Baily Lighthouse and the cliffs of the Howth peninsula.
The right side is generally more scenic for this short hop. Sit here to see the industrial heartland of Northern England and the scenic reservoirs of Derbyshire. On the descent into Dublin, you will likely get a close-up view of the 'Ireland's Eye' island and the coastal towns of Malahide and Portmarnock.

North London Fringes
Aerial views of the suburban sprawl and the busy M25 orbital motorway shortly after departure.
Snowdonia National Park
On clear days, the rugged peaks of North Wales, including Snowdon, are visible across the water.
St George's Channel
A vast expanse of the Irish Sea as the aircraft transitions from the English coast to Irish airspace.
Dublin Southside
Views of the suburban coastline and the Wicklow Mountains in the distance during a southerly approach.
Choose this side for potential views of the Welsh mountains. During winter months, sunset flights provide a beautiful orange glow over the Irish Sea. This side is also preferred if the aircraft is assigned a southerly landing pattern (Runway 28L), as it faces the city center.
