Which side of the plane to sit from Copernicus Wrocław Airport (Wroclaw) to Dublin Airport (Dublin)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is generally superior for this route, offering potential views of the Berlin skyline, the unique Dutch coastline, the rugged peaks of North Wales, and the iconic coastal approach over Howth Head into Dublin.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌆

Berlin Skyline

The flight path often passes just north of the German capital, offering a view of the Fernsehturm and urban center.

🐚

Wadden Sea

The intricate patterns of tidal flats, wetlands, and the West Frisian Islands along the Dutch coast.

🏔️

Snowdonia National Park

Stunning aerial perspectives of North Wales, including Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa), the highest peak in Wales.

🏖️

Anglesey Island

The rugged coastline and the Menai Strait separating the island from the Welsh mainland.

🏰

Howth Head

The dramatic peninsula and cliffs marking the northern entrance to Dublin Bay just before landing.

The right side is essential for the iconic approach into Dublin Airport; if the plane lands from the east, you will fly directly over Howth Head and the northern suburbs. For the best lighting on the Welsh mountains, morning flights are recommended.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Sudetes Mountains

Distant views of the Karkonosze range along the Polish-Czech border shortly after takeoff.

🏢

Ruhr Metropolitan Area

The sprawling industrial and urban landscape of Western Germany, including cities like Essen and Dortmund.

🏙️

Greater London

On clear days, the vast urban expanse of the UK capital is often visible on the southern horizon.

☘️

Wicklow Mountains

The rolling green and purple heather-covered hills south of Dublin during the final descent.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is better for spotting the industrial heart of Germany and the soft green landscapes of Leinster as you approach Ireland from the southeast.
