WAW → DUS
Which side of the plane to sit from Warsaw Chopin Airport (Warsaw) to Düsseldorf Airport (Duesseldorf)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers superior views of the major urban landscapes, including a potential sweep of the Berlin skyline and the industrial architecture of the Ruhr area during the descent.
Warsaw City Center
Dramatic views of the Palace of Culture and Science and the modern skyscraper cluster immediately after takeoff.
Berlin Panorama
Depending on the flight path, the TV Tower and the dense urban core of the German capital are frequently visible.
Harz Mountains
The Brocken, the highest peak in Northern Germany, stands out as a prominent landmark on the horizon.
Ruhr Valley
The dense network of cities, stadiums, and industrial heritage sites that define Germany's industrial heartland.
Rhine River Bend
Stunning views of the Rhine as the plane banks for its final approach into Düsseldorf Airport.
The right side is ideal for morning flights as the sun will be on the opposite side, providing perfect lighting for the Berlin and Ruhr cityscapes. Request a seat forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Rhine river during the low-altitude approach into DUS.
Wilanów Palace
The 'Polish Versailles' and its geometric gardens are often visible shortly after departure from Warsaw Chopin.
Spreewald Biosphere
A unique landscape of inland delta canals and lush greenery located south of Berlin.
Central Polish Plains
Geometric patchworks of agricultural fields characteristic of the Masovian and Greater Poland regions.
Cologne Cathedral
On clear days during a southern approach pattern, the distant spires of the Kölner Dom may be visible to the south.
Sit on the left if you are flying in the late afternoon to avoid the direct glare of the setting sun. This side provides a softer light for photographing the sprawling agricultural landscapes of Poland and eastern Germany.
