Which side of the plane to sit from Copernicus Wrocław Airport (Wroclaw) to East Midlands Airport (East Midlands)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior coastal views, including the Dutch Frisian Islands and the distinct circular shape of The Wash estuary as you enter English airspace.
Berlin Skyline
The German capital is frequently visible to the north, with the TV Tower identifiable on clear days.
Wadden Sea
The unique UNESCO-listed intertidal zone and the string of West Frisian Islands along the Dutch coast.
IJsselmeer
The vast, shallow artificial lake in the central Netherlands separated from the North Sea by the Afsluitdijk.
The Wash
The prominent square-mouthed bay and estuary between Norfolk and Lincolnshire as you reach the UK coast.
Leicester
Clear views of the East Midlands urban centers and King Power Stadium during the final approach phase.
The right side is ideal for seeing the intricate Dutch coastline and the Frisian Islands. Look out for 'The Wash' as it is the most recognizable geographic feature on this route. For evening flights, you may catch a sunset over the North Sea as you head west.
Lower Silesia
Aerial views of the industrial landscapes around Legnica and Lubin shortly after departure from Wrocław.
Harz Mountains
The northernmost mountain range in Germany, featuring Brocken peak, often visible to the south of the flight path.
Rotterdam Port
Massive shipping infrastructure and the complex waterways of the Rhine-Meuse-Scheldt delta.
Milton Keynes
Distinctive American-style grid layout of the city visible during the descent into the Midlands.
Sit on the left for a better view of the German industrial heartlands and the sprawling suburbs of the UK Midlands during descent. In winter, the Harz Mountains provide a beautiful snow-capped contrast. Early morning flights will have the sun behind you on this side, reducing glare.
