WRO → GDN
Which side of the plane to sit from Copernicus Wrocław Airport (Wroclaw) to Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport (Gdansk)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the winding Vistula river, historic Toruń, and iconic landmarks like Malbork Castle and the Gdańsk shipyards during the final approach.
Wrocław Old Town
Aerial view of the Market Square and Cathedral Island immediately after takeoff.
Vistula River
The longest river in Poland, visible as a wide, winding ribbon through the landscape.
Toruń
The historic red-brick architecture of the medieval old town from above.
Malbork Castle
The massive Teutonic fortress, recognizable by its distinct red-brick structures.
Gdańsk Center
The Motława riverfront and the famous Crane during the final descent.
Gdańsk Shipyard
The historic industrial site and the massive amber-colored stadium.
Best for late afternoon flights as the low sun illuminates the red-brick architecture of northern Poland. Watch for Malbork Castle on the horizon as you pass Grudziądz. During the standard approach to GDN, this side usually offers the iconic view of the Gdańsk Port and the Amber Arena stadium.
Wrocław Suburbs
View of the Odra river and the modern developments around the Lower Silesian capital.
Wielkopolska Forests
Large stretches of greenery and managed forests between Wrocław and Poznań.
Bydgoszcz
The Venice of Poland with the Brda river flowing through the center.
Kashubian Lakes
A stunning mosaic of deep blue lakes set amidst rolling green hills.
Port of Gdynia
Massive cranes and cargo ships lined up along the northern part of the Tricity.
Sit here for morning flights to avoid sun glare. Keep your camera ready for the Kashubian Lake District about 15 minutes before landing. If the flight approach path comes from the north, you will get an excellent view of the Baltic coastline.
