WRO → ZRH
Which side of the plane to sit from Copernicus Wrocław Airport (Wroclaw) to Zürich Airport (Zurich)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for the Karkonosze mountains shortly after takeoff and offers a spectacular panoramic view of the Swiss Alps during the descent into Zurich.
Karkonosze Mountains
Dramatic views of the Giant Mountains and Śnieżka peak shortly after departing Wroclaw.
Prague Cityscape
The historic towers and bridges of the Czech capital are often visible to the southwest.
Danube River
Observe the winding path of the Danube near the historic city of Regensburg in Bavaria.
Swiss Alps Panorama
As the flight descends, the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Glarus Alps dominate the horizon.
Lake Zurich
Aerial views of the long, narrow lake and the gold coast suburbs during the final approach.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. During winter, look for the snow-covered peaks of the Sudetes and the Alps, which are the primary scenic highlights of this route.
Bohemian Forest
Vast stretches of dense greenery along the border between the Czech Republic and Germany.
Nuremberg
The red roofs and historic center of this major Franconian city can be spotted mid-flight.
Lake Constance
A massive view of the 'Bodensee' where Germany, Austria, and Switzerland converge.
Black Forest
The eastern edges of the Schwarzwald are visible as you enter Swiss airspace.
Northern Zurich
Views of the industrial and residential districts of northern Zurich just before touchdown.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to minimize glare. It offers the best perspective of Lake Constance, which is the most significant water feature on this trajectory.
