Our Recommendation
8.4

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is superior for this route as it offers a continuous view of the Baltic coastline followed by a spectacular aerial perspective of Hamburg and its massive port before descending into Bremen.

Left Side Highlights
8.4
🏰

Tallinn Old Town

Immediate views of the medieval spires and the Toompea Hill right after takeoff from TLL.

🌊

Gulf of Riga

Expansive views of the Latvian coastline and the distant city of Riga depending on the flight corridor.

βš“

Port of Rostock

A clear look at the industrial maritime hub and the seaside resort of Warnemunde.

πŸ™οΈ

Hamburg Skyline

A breathtaking view of the Elbe Philharmonic Hall and the city's dense urban center.

πŸ›Ά

Alster Lakes

The Inner and Outer Alster lakes provide a beautiful blue contrast to Hamburg's red-brick architecture.

🌳

LΓΌneburg Heath

Rolling purple and green landscapes as the aircraft begins its final approach into Bremen.

Choose a window seat on the left to capture the urban density of Hamburg, which is the visual highlight of the trip. For morning flights, this side will be shaded, offering better photography conditions without glare. Look out for the distinct 'A' shape of the Hamburg Port bridges approximately 20 minutes before landing.

Right Side Highlights
7.9
🏝️

Gotland Island

The large Swedish island is often visible to the north, appearing as a limestone gem in the Baltic.

A Danish island known for its round churches and dramatic rocky coastline.

πŸŒ‰

Fehmarn Sound Bridge

The iconic bridge connecting the German mainland to Fehmarn island across the Baltic.

🌊

Elbe Estuary

Where the Elbe River meets the North Sea, often marked by massive container ships entering the channel.

🌀️

North Sea Horizon

The vast, shimmering expanse of the North Sea becomes visible as the plane turns south toward Bremen.

The right side is ideal for passengers who enjoy maritime geography and island spotting. In the late afternoon, this side will face the sun, so bring sunglasses or a polarizing filter for your camera. Keep an eye out for the white chalk cliffs of the German or Danish islands during clear summer days.
