Warsaw City Center
A spectacular view of the Palace of Culture and Science surrounded by modern skyscrapers during takeoff.
PGE Narodowy
The silver-and-red national stadium located on the eastern banks of the Vistula River.
Vistula River Meanders
The winding path of Poland's longest river as it flows through the Mazovian lowlands.
Wroclaw Old Town
The historic Market Square and the spires of Cathedral Island visible during the descent into WRO.
Tarczyński Arena
The distinctively shaped, glowing white stadium of Wroclaw, often passed closely on final approach.
The right side is the premier choice for urban photography. Upon takeoff from Warsaw Chopin, if the aircraft departs toward the north or west, you will get a full panorama of the central business district. During the approach to Wroclaw, usually from the east, this side provides an excellent view of the intricate network of bridges and islands on the Oder River. For evening flights, look for the brightly lit Sky Tower, Wroclaw's tallest building.

Wilanów District
View of the historic Wilanów Palace complex and the rapidly growing southern residential areas of Warsaw.
Łódź Agglomeration
The dense urban and industrial layout of Poland’s third-largest city, often visible to the west mid-flight.
Ślęża Mountain
An ancient, solitary peak rising sharply from the flat Silesian Lowlands south of Wroclaw during descent.
Jeziorsko Reservoir
One of Poland's largest artificial lakes, appearing as a shimmering blue expanse on the horizon.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. On exceptionally clear days, look far south toward the horizon during descent to spot the distant Karkonosze Mountains and the Śnieżka peak. This side is typically better for travelers wishing to avoid the direct glare of the afternoon sun during the southwest-bound journey.
