Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Katowice to Funchal. Right-side seats capture the most dramatic scenery on both legs: the Carpathian Mountains and Silesian terrain during takeoff, and Madeira's volcanic peaks and northern cliffs during descent. Left has merit for landing views, but the takeoff advantage is more pronounced.

During takeoff from Pyrzowice (KTW), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer views of the Carpathian Mountains and Silesian Upland as the aircraft climbs southwestward from Katowice. The terrain rises progressively toward the south, creating a dramatic backdrop during the initial climb phase. Notable sights include: Carpathian Mountains (distant southern horizon), Silesian Upland (foreground and middle distance), Vistula River valley (winding through lower terrain to the left), Upper Silesian Industrial Region (urban sprawl directly below and left).

When landing at Cristiano Ronaldo International Airport (FNC), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide the best views during descent into Funchal. The aircraft approaches from the northeast, and left-side passengers see Madeira's dramatic northern coastline, the island's central volcanic peaks, and the Atlantic Ocean as the plane descends toward the runway on the southern coast. Notable sights include: Madeira's volcanic peaks and central ridge (Pico Ruivo area, visible as elevated terrain in the center-left), northern coastline with steep cliffs and deep valleys (Pico do Arieiro region), Atlantic Ocean (surrounding the island), Funchal city and harbor (visible during final approach on the southern coast).

The flight from Pyrzowice (KTW) to Cristiano Ronaldo International Airport (FNC) takes 4h 35m.

The flight path crosses the Alps (visible from cruising altitude as a major mountain range with snow-capped peaks, particularly the Mont Blanc massif and surrounding ranges), the Rhône Valley in southeastern France, the Pyrenees along the Spain-France border, and the Iberian Peninsula's interior plateaus. Over the Atlantic, the aircraft passes west of the Iberian Peninsula and approaches Madeira from the northeast, with views of open ocean for the final 3+ hours of flight.
