About This Route

Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Ruzyne (PRG) to Noibai International (HAN)?

Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Prague to Hanoi. The right side scores 3.5 versus left's 2.5 due to the landing approach's exceptional scenic value. While Prague's departure is pleasant, Hanoi's approach over the Red River Delta and Halong Bay's limestone karsts provides dramatically more varied and visually distinctive terrain. The karst formations and coastal geography create a far more memorable experience than the relatively modest Bohemian Plateau views on departure.

What can I see during takeoff from Ruzyne in Prague?

Notable sights include: Prague city center and Vltava River meanders, Bohemian Plateau terrain, distant Carpathian Mountains to the southeast.
