TMP → HHN
Which side of the plane to sit from Tampere-Pirkkala Airport (Tampere) to Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (Hahn)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a more diverse landscape palette, ranging from the island-heavy Baltic crossing to the dramatic vineyard-covered valleys near the destination.
Turku Archipelago
A stunning labyrinth of thousands of rocky islands visible immediately after leaving Finnish airspace.
Gotland and Öland
The plane often passes near these large Swedish islands, showing off their unique limestone geography and coastal cliffs.
Hamburg and the Elbe
Observe the massive shipping traffic and the wide Elbe estuary as you enter Northern German airspace.
Moselle River Bends
The highlight of the trip is the approach to Hahn, featuring the spectacular winding river loops and steep-sloped vineyards.
Hunsrück Landscape
The final descent offers views of the rugged, castle-dotted hills of the Rhineland-Palatinate area.
The right side is the clear winner for the landing phase at Hahn. To see the Moselle valley clearly, book a seat in front of or well behind the wing to avoid obstruction. Seasonal tip: autumn flights offer a spectacular golden hue over the German vineyards as the leaves change color.
Helsinki Coastline
Depending on the departure corridor, you may catch a glimpse of the Finnish capital's southern archipelagos.
Gdańsk Bay
As the flight tracks south across the Baltic, the Polish coastline and the long Hel Peninsula often come into view.
Harz National Park
Aerial views of Germany's northernmost mountain range, characterized by dense spruce forests and mist.
Mainhattan Skyline
On clear days, the distant skyscrapers of Frankfurt's banking district are visible to the east before the descent into the Hunsrück region.
Opt for the left side if you prefer seeing the more urbanized Baltic coastline of Estonia and Poland. This side is best during early morning flights to keep the sun behind the aircraft, providing better contrast for photography of the German interior forests.
