SXF → LTN
Which side of the plane to sit from Berlin-Schönefeld Airport (Berlin) to London Luton Airport (London)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the North Sea coastline, the Dutch polders, and the intricate agricultural geometry of the English Fens during the descent.
Berlin City Center
The iconic TV Tower and the urban landscape of the German capital right after takeoff.
Wadden Sea
The unique UNESCO-listed tidal flats and islands along the Dutch and German coastlines.
The Fens
The unique, low-lying reclaimed agricultural landscapes and drainage canals of East Anglia.
Cambridge City
The historic university town's colleges and chapels are often visible during the descent phase.
Chiltern Hills
Lush green rolling hills and English countryside during the final approach into Luton.
Sit here on morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. This side is consistently better for viewing the transition from the North Sea to the English coast and the patchwork fields of East Anglia.
Potsdam Palaces
Historic Prussian gardens and the Sanssouci palace shortly after departure from Berlin.
Harz Mountains
The Brocken peak is often visible in the distance across the plains of central Germany.
Rotterdam Port
The vast industrial landscape and shipping lanes of one of the world's busiest maritime hubs.
London Skyline
Distant views of the Shard and the City skyscrapers on a clear southern approach pattern.
Choose this side for afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the North Sea. On specific arrival routes from the south, you might get a distant glimpse of the Thames and central London.
