Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the Oslofjord upon departure and a more detailed perspective of the English coastline and the Manchester-Liverpool urban corridor during the descent.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Oslofjord Islands

Aerial views of the intricate island chains and coastal towns of the Vestfold region shortly after takeoff.

🏖️

Yorkshire Coastline

Dramatic cliffs and the coastal towns of Scarborough and Whitby as the flight crosses the North Sea.

🌳

North York Moors

Vast stretches of protected moorland and deep green valleys spanning across North Yorkshire.

🏢

Manchester Metro

A clear view of the Greater Manchester sprawl, including the iconic football stadiums and city center skyscrapers.

🏙️

Liverpool Waterfront

The historic Three Graces and the iconic Liverpool skyline during the final approach into John Lennon Airport.

For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to avoid engine glare. On afternoon flights, this side will be away from the direct sun, making it easier to take photos of the Yorkshire landscape and the Mersey estuary. Watch for the distinctive shape of the Manchester Ship Canal just before landing.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🚢

North Sea Energy

Spotting offshore wind farms and cargo vessels traversing the busy shipping lanes between Norway and the UK.

⛰️

The Pennines

The 'backbone of England' featuring rolling hills and reservoirs that separate the East and West of the country.

🏞️

Yorkshire Dales

Rugged limestone formations and patchwork fields visible to the North during the mid-flight transition.

🌉

Mersey Gateway

The impressive infrastructure of the Mersey Gateway Bridge and the industrial heritage of Runcorn and Widnes.

The right side is excellent for viewing the more mountainous terrain of the Pennines and distant glimpses of the Lake District on very clear days. If the flight approaches from the west (Runway 09), this side offers a panoramic view of the Wirral Peninsula and the Irish Sea. Early morning flights will have the best lighting on this side.
