Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a more diverse array of landmarks, including the Baltic islands, the Danish capital, and the scenic Peak District during the descent into Manchester.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏝️

Estonian Archipelago

Clear views of Saaremaa and Hiiumaa islands shortly after departure from Tallinn.

🌉

Oresund Bridge

The iconic bridge and tunnel system linking Sweden and Denmark is often visible on southern tracks.

🇩🇰

Copenhagen

Aerial perspective of the Danish capital's historic center and harbor area.

⛱️

Frisian Islands

The unique string of sandy barrier islands stretching along the Dutch coastline.

⛰️

Peak District

Dramatic moorlands and valleys visible during the final arrival phase into Manchester.

For the best visibility of the UK coastline, sit on the left side. On morning flights, the sun is behind the aircraft, which reduces glare and improves photography. Avoid seats directly over the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Oresund Bridge.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🌊

Baltic Sea

Vast maritime views with heavy shipping traffic lanes near the Gulf of Finland.

🇩🇰

Jutland Coast

The northern coastline of Denmark where the Baltic and North Seas converge.

🌬️

North Sea Wind Farms

Massive offshore wind installations visible as intricate geometric patterns in the water.

⚓

Humber Estuary

The wide gateway to Northern England as the flight crosses the UK coastline.

🌳

Yorkshire Dales

Lush green landscapes and traditional stone-walled fields characteristic of Northern England.

The right side is ideal for avoiding direct sunlight and glare on afternoon flights. Keep an eye out for the shimmering wind farms in the North Sea, which are particularly striking and easy to spot in clear weather conditions.
