Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Polish Baltic coastline, including the unique Hel Peninsula, the island of Bornholm, and the iconic Øresund Bridge on final approach to Copenhagen.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
⛱️

Hel Peninsula

A remarkably thin 35km-long sandbar peninsula separating the Bay of Puck from the Baltic Sea.

🏙️

Tri-City Area

Aerial views of Gdańsk, Sopot, and Gdynia along the northern Polish coastline.

🏝️

Bornholm Island

The rocky Danish island in the middle of the Baltic Sea, often passed directly to the north.

🌉

Øresund Bridge

The massive combined railway and motorway bridge connecting Copenhagen with Malmö, Sweden.

🌆

Malmö Skyline

Clear views of Sweden's third-largest city and the Turning Torso skyscraper across the water.

Choose the right side for the most iconic landmarks. The Hel Peninsula is a must-see early in the flight. During the descent, the Øresund Bridge is best viewed from this side, especially when landing on Runway 04R or 22L. In winter, the frozen coastal edges of the Baltic can provide stunning geometric patterns.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏞️

Vistula River Meanders

The winding path of Poland's longest river visible shortly after takeoff from Warsaw.

🌊

Szczecin Lagoon

A large coastal lagoon on the border of Poland and Germany visible during the mid-flight phase.

⚪

Møns Klint

Dramatic white chalk cliffs on the Danish island of Møn seen during the descent.

🌳

Zealand Landscapes

The lush green fields and scattered villages of the largest Danish island as you approach the capital.

The left side is best for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. It offers better views of the inland Polish geography and the southern Danish islands. Look out for the white cliffs of Møn approximately 15 minutes before landing if the aircraft approaches from the south.
