WAWDSA

Our Recommendation
7.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the North Sea coastline, the intricate Frisian Islands of the Netherlands and Germany, and a spectacular approach over the Humber Estuary and the iconic Humber Bridge before landing.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🌲

Kampinos National Park

A massive UNESCO biosphere reserve featuring sand dunes and marshes located just northwest of Warsaw.

🚢

Elbe Estuary

The wide mouth of the Elbe River near Hamburg, a critical artery for international shipping in Northern Europe.

🏝️

Frisian Islands

The beautiful chain of islands stretching along the Dutch and German coast, surrounded by the Wadden Sea.

🌬️

North Sea Wind Farms

Massive offshore wind arrays visible as white dots or spinning blades against the deep blue sea.

🌉

Humber Bridge

Once the world's longest suspension bridge, it spans the Humber Estuary and serves as a landmark for the final approach.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Keep your camera ready as you cross the UK coastline; the descent often passes directly over or near the city of Hull and the Humber Estuary, providing excellent industrial and maritime views.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🏙️

Warsaw Skyline

Bird's-eye view of the Palace of Culture and Science and the growing cluster of modern skyscrapers in central Warsaw.

🌳

Wielkopolska Lakes

Glacial lakes and dense woodlands dotting the landscape as you fly over central and western Poland.

🏢

Berlin Outskirts

On a clear day, the southern sprawl of the German capital and the Brandenburg region are visible in the distance.

🌾

The Wash Estuary

The unique square-shaped bay on the East Anglian coast, famous for its salt marshes and wildlife.

⛰️

Peak District Edges

The rolling hills and darker gritstone edges of the Peak District National Park appearing to the southwest during descent.

Sit on the left for the best chance to see the sunset if you are flying in the late afternoon or evening. This side is also better for spotting the dense urban lighting of the Ruhr area in Germany during night flights.
