Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Warsaw to Bucharest. While takeoff offers river views, the landing approach provides more dramatic scenery: the Carpathian Mountains and Danube floodplain are more visually striking than Warsaw's flat surroundings. Left-side seats capture the best of the descent.

During takeoff from Okecie (WAW), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer views of the Vistula River valley and Warsaw's urban sprawl as the aircraft climbs southeastward. The river's distinctive meanders are visible during the initial climb, and you'll see the city grid fade into agricultural plains. Notable sights include: Vistula River (winding through Warsaw), Warsaw city center and suburbs, Masovian Plain extending south, Narew River confluence to the northeast.

When landing at Otopeni (OTP), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views during the descent approach to Bucharest. You'll see the Danube River's floodplain, the Carpathian Mountains rising to the northwest, and the city's sprawl emerging from the flat Wallachian Plain. Notable sights include: Carpathian Mountains (northern horizon, snow-capped peaks visible in winter/spring), Danube River floodplain and wetlands, Wallachian Plain agricultural fields, Bucharest city sprawl and Otopeni Airport approach.

The flight from Okecie (WAW) to Otopeni (OTP) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Masovian Plain (Poland), then enters the Carpathian foothills near the Polish-Slovak border. The Vistula and San River valleys are visible in the first hour. The second half crosses the Wallachian Plain (Romania) with the Carpathian Mountains forming the northern boundary. The Danube River and its floodplain become prominent 30-40 minutes before landing at Bucharest.
