Which side of the plane to sit from Vilnius International Airport (Vilnius) to Cork Airport (Cork)?

A unique, thin sand-dune spit separating the Curonian Lagoon from the Baltic Sea.

Frisian Islands

The beautiful string of islands stretching along the Dutch and German North Sea coasts.

Maasvlakte

The massive industrial port structures of Rotterdam visible near the Dutch shoreline.

🌉

Severn Estuary

The dramatic tidal range and bridges connecting South West England to Wales.

☘️

Old Head of Kinsale

Stunning views of the rugged Irish headlands during the final approach into Cork.

The right side is prime for coastal photography. On the descent into Cork, you will likely see the dramatic cliffs of the Irish coast. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for the Baltic views.
