Who needs to view London from the British Airways London Eye when you can see it all from a British Airways flight to Heathrow. The east to west flight path to Heathrow must be one of the most scenic flightpaths in the world. I always like to get a window seat on the right hand side of the plane when flying into London.
Flying along the Thames you get to see Canary Wharf and the building formerly known as the Millenium Dome. Then it is a flyby past the heart of Westminster with the Houses of Parliament and past Hyde Park.
