About This Route

Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Dublin (DUB) to Dallas Fort Worth International (DFW)?

The left seat wins overall because the Dublin departure on the left side is genuinely spectacular — Dublin Bay, the Poolbeg chimneys, and the Wicklow Mountains together make for a memorable climb-out. The landing views are more evenly matched, but the departure experience tips the balance to the left side for the full journey.
