WRO → WAW
Which side of the plane to sit from Copernicus Wrocław Airport (Wroclaw) to Warsaw Chopin Airport (Warsaw)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is preferred as it typically offers a direct view of Wrocław's historic Old Town shortly after takeoff and provides the most dramatic panorama of the Warsaw skyline and the Vistula River upon arrival.
Wrocław Old Town
Stunning aerial view of the Market Square and Cathedral Island immediately after departure.
Piotrków Trybunalski
An important historic town featuring a well-preserved medieval layout and royal history.
Vistula River
The winding path of Poland's longest river as it approaches the capital city.
Warsaw Center Skyline
A spectacular view of the Palace of Culture and Science alongside modern skyscrapers.
National Stadium
The iconic red-and-white PGE Narodowy stadium located on the eastern bank of the Vistula.
For the best experience, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you. If the aircraft lands on Runway 33 (common), the right side provides a world-class view of the entire Warsaw city center. Be ready with your camera within the first 3 minutes of takeoff for Wrocław views.
Trzebnica Hills
Rolling landscapes and orchards located just north of the Wrocław metropolitan area.
Kalisz
A view of one of Poland's oldest cities, showcasing its historic urban core.
Łódź Industrial Landscape
The expansive urban sprawl of Poland's former textile heartland, visible mid-flight.
Kampinos National Park
A vast emerald forest belt located on the northwestern edge of Warsaw.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid direct glare from the southern sun. This side offers better views of the rural Polish plains and the deep green canopy of Kampinos if the approach patterns loop north.
