AMM → ZRH
Which side of the plane to sit from Queen Alia International Airport (Amman) to Zürich Airport (Zurich)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is the clear winner for its dramatic sequence of views, starting with the Galilee, continuing over the intricate Croatian islands, and concluding with a breathtaking entry into the heart of the Alps.
Search flights from AMM to ZRH
Sea of Galilee
A clear view of the freshwater lake and the surrounding green valleys of Northern Israel.
Cypriot Coastline
The southern beaches of Cyprus and the distant peaks of the Troodos mountain range.
Dalmatian Islands
An incredible visual of the hundreds of islands and turquoise channels along the Croatian coast.
The High Alps
Majestic, snow-capped peaks of the Austrian and Swiss Alps as the plane begins its descent.
Swiss Countryside
The meticulously organized landscapes and small villages of the Swiss Plateau.
Sit on the right for the best geographical diversity. Pay close attention about 45 minutes before landing for the Croatian coastline, which is a major highlight. In winter, the transition from the blue Adriatic to the stark white Alps is one of the most scenic sequences in European aviation.

Amman Skyline
Detailed views of the city's unique limestone hills and Roman ruins shortly after takeoff from AMM.
Levantine Coast
The meeting point of the desert and the deep blue Mediterranean Sea near the start of the journey.
Greek Ionian Islands
Lush green islands like Corfu and Paxos set against the turquoise Ionian Sea.
Lake Zurich
If the aircraft approaches from the south, this side provides a stunning panorama of the lake and the city.
Italian Peninsula
Views of the 'heel' of Italy and the Gargano Peninsula jutting into the Adriatic Sea.
This side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. For the best landing experience, look out for the shimmering waters of Lake Zurich; in clear weather, you can see the city center and the Grossmünster cathedral clearly during the final descent.
