Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Duesseldorf to Frankfurt. The left side delivers the Rhine River and Düsseldorf on departure and the Frankfurt skyline plus Taunus hills on approach. The right side offers little of comparable interest on either end of this short flight.

During takeoff from Dusseldorf (DUS), sit on the Left side for the best views. Departures heading southeast toward Frankfurt give the left side a clear view over the Rhine River and Düsseldorf city center including the distinctive Rhine Tower and the river's broad bend through the urban core. The right side faces industrial areas and flat agricultural land to the west. Notable sights include: Rhine River bend through Düsseldorf, Rhine Tower (Rheinturm) and Altstadt rooftops, Cologne Cathedral visible to the south on clear days, Rhine-Ruhr urban sprawl.

When landing at Frankfurt Main (FRA), sit on the Left side for the best views. FRA typically lands on runways 25L/25R from the east, meaning the aircraft approaches from the east heading west. A left-side seat on approach looks south over the Taunus hills and the Main River valley, while the right side faces north over flat Wetterau farmland. Notable sights include: Taunus hill range to the south, Main River winding through Frankfurt, Frankfurt city skyline (Bankenviertel skyscrapers), Sachsenhausen district south of the Main.

The flight from Dusseldorf (DUS) to Frankfurt Main (FRA) takes Approximately 45-55 minutes.

The flight crosses the flat Rhine-Main plain, passing over the Bergisches Land low hills east of Cologne, then the Westerwald plateau, before descending into the Main River basin. The Siegerland uplands may be visible to the southeast. No dramatic mountain terrain — this is a low-altitude crossing of central German rolling hills and river valleys.
