“A sight not to be missed when traveling to Japan. Mount Fuji is breathtaking, whether viewed from Tokyo or the surrounding parks.”
Sylwia Golonko
“A comfortable LOT flight from Warsaw to Tbilisi paved the way for a mountain adventure. During our trek, we reached Dartlo—the jewel of Tusheti, with stone towers and houses set against the majestic Caucasus landscape. Georgia in its purest form.”

“Thanks to LOT’s direct flights between Warsaw and Tashkent, I had the opportunity to discover the beauty of Uzbekistan. From bustling bazaars and majestic mosques to breathtaking landscapes, it was an extraordinary journey exploring wonderful culture and hospitality. Simply incredible!”
Zuzanna Olejnik
“I took this photo on a beach in Malibu after my direct LOT flight from Warsaw to Los Angeles. Just before taking the shot, I accidentally stepped into the water in my new shoes, but two passing surfers turned it into a funny story.”
Lech Treichel
“The photo shows a night view of Manhattan in New York, taken from a promenade in Brooklyn across the East River. New York is a city that never sleeps, and the lights in the downtown skyscrapers illuminate even the darkest night.”
Michał Haduch
“The photo shows the famous Mount Fuji and Chureito Pagoda during cherry blossom season.”
Sylwia Rycyk
“In the heart of Marrakech, in the Majorelle Gardens, colors dance in the sunlight! Intense blues, palms, and cacti create a fairytale landscape.

“Just forty-five minutes from Skopje Airport lies the Matka Canyon — a picturesque natural world dominated by two elements: water and earth, still untouched by mass tourism.”

“Malta – a small Mediterranean isle, A cradle of all kinds of attractions, Its sea’s azure is sure to beguile, Enchanting every visitor with its attractions, And the views… simply breathtaking! :)”

“In Miami, I immersed myself in a city that never stops changing. Golden beaches, Latin beats, bold colors of Art Deco streets, and nightlife made every moment unforgettable. Miami is full of energy, so this trip will remain in my memory long after I return to Poland!”
Kaye Abigail Antonio
“From Lovrijenac Fortress in Dubrovnik, there’s an incredible view of the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic, the iconic red rooftops, and the historic city walls. This UNESCO-listed site, known as the real location of King’s Landing from the series Game of Thrones, combines natural beauty with medieval charm, creating a truly unforgettable scene.”
Aliaksandr Palianski
“A hidden gem of the Dolomites — turquoise waters surrounded by dramatic peaks. For me, this photo captures the pure power of nature and the joy of reaching a place that feels almost unreal. Standing by the crystal-clear Lake Karersee, I feel like I’m in a dream. The perfect blend of emerald waters.”
Fly with us to Venice just like Aliaksandr did and explore the awe-inspiring gem of the Dolomites!
Krystian Świtaj
“Baku and the whole of Azerbaijan are a land of contrasts — a place where rich history intertwines with modernity at every turn. Azerbaijanis will take you to picturesque mountain villages in the Caucasus as well as to the tranquil shores of the Caspian Sea. Azerbaijan has everything to enchant you!”
Justyna Kapiczak
“A beautiful beach in Cyprus :) Larnaca and its surroundings.”
Kamil Radziszewski
“High five! – The Mitten Shadow in Monument Valley. The Mitten Shadow occurs twice a year: at the end of March and in mid-September. During sunset, you can see the shadow of West Mitten perfectly align with East Mitten, making it look as if the monuments are giving each other a high five.”
Marek Węgrzyn
“Rainy Times Square—captivating with every light and reflection.”
Paweł Oczadly
“Sensō-ji Temple in Tokyo, proving that at night it’s not just the neon lights that shine beautifully in Japan’s capital.”
