Vistula River Meanders
Stunning aerial views of Poland's longest river as it flows north toward the sea.
Hel Peninsula
The most distinctive landmark on this route; a 35km long sandbar stretching into the Baltic Sea.
Tricity Area
The combined urban sprawl and busy ports of Gdańsk, Gdynia, and Sopot are visible near the coast.
Gotland Island
On clear days, Sweden's largest island can be seen in the distance to the east while over the Baltic.
Swedish Archipelago
Breathtaking views of the numerous small islands and rocky outcrops near Nyköping during final approach.
The Right Side (Starboard) is the winner for maritime views. The Hel Peninsula is a must-see; it usually appears about 25-30 minutes into the flight. If you are on a morning flight, the sun will be on this side, so bring sunglasses. During landing, look for the Nyköping harbor and the intricate coastline where the forest meets the sea.

Sit on the left for sunset views during late afternoon flights. Keep an eye out for the western coastline of Poland near Kołobrzeg if the flight path tracks slightly west. During the descent into Skavsta, look for the small lakes that dot the landscape of Södermanland.
