See the impressive engineering of the Dutch coastline, including the dams and dikes around the Maas-Rhine delta.
Greater London
On clear days, the vast sprawl of London and the Thames Estuary is visible as the flight path passes just north of the city.
Severn Bridges
Spot the two massive bridges connecting England and Wales over the wide Severn Estuary.
Shannon Estuary
The highlight of the trip: a low-altitude view of the expansive Shannon Estuary and the green hills of County Clare during the final descent.
The right side is essential for the arrival into Shannon. Most flight paths align for a landing that follows the estuary, providing incredible views of the water and the 'Emerald Isle' landscape. In the winter months, afternoon flights offer a beautiful sunset view over the Atlantic as you approach the west of Ireland.
