Our Recommendation

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a stunning progression from the turquoise Aegean Sea and Greek islands, across the rugged Balkan peaks, culminating in a spectacular traversal of the Austrian Alps.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Aegean Archipelago

Breathtaking views of the Greek islands and the jagged coastline of Western Turkey immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Dinaric Alps

Dramatic limestone peaks and deep valleys as the flight crosses through the Balkan Peninsula.

🏔️

Austrian Alps

A majestic panorama of snow-capped peaks, including views towards the Hohe Tauern range and glacial valleys.

🏰

Bavarian Hinterland

The picturesque landscape of Southern Germany, featuring dense forests and small medieval towns.

🌲

Thuringian Forest

Large expanses of dark green spruce and fir trees as you approach Northern Germany.

For the most dramatic views of the Alps, opt for a morning flight to have the sun behind you. This side avoids direct glare during the northbound trek. Seats behind the wing are recommended to capture the scale of the mountains without engine obstruction.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🏙️

Izmir Cityscape

A panoramic view of the Gulf of Izmir and the urban sprawl of Turkey's third-largest city during ascent.

💧

Lake Balaton

The 'Hungarian Sea' is often visible as a long, turquoise sliver depending on the specific air corridor used.

🏰

Prague & Central Europe

Distant views of major Central European cities and the winding Elbe river system.

⛰️

Harz Mountains

The northernmost mountain range in Germany, signaling the final descent into Hannover.

✈️

Hannover Approach

Aerial views of the Leine river and the red-roofed suburbs of the Lower Saxony capital.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to see the sunset reflecting off the many lakes of Central Europe. If the flight path takes a more easterly route, you may catch a glimpse of Budapest or Prague in the distance.
