AMS → AMM
Which side of the plane to sit from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Queen Alia International Airport (Amman)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular sequence of the Adriatic coastline, the Greek islands, and a world-class descent over the Dead Sea and the Jordan Rift Valley.
The Dolomites
Dramatic limestone peaks and deep valleys along the Italian-Austrian border.
Dalmatian Coast
Breathtaking views of Croatia's turquoise waters and its thousands of jagged islands.
Ionian Islands
The emerald waters of Corfu and Paxos as the route skims the western edge of Greece.
Tel Aviv Skyline
A clear view of the Israeli coastline and the dense urban sprawl of Tel Aviv and Jaffa.
The Dead Sea
The most iconic view of the trip, featuring the bright blue water and salt formations at the world's lowest point.
Wadi Rum Approach
As the plane turns for AMM, the reddish desert landscape and canyons of Jordan become visible.
This is the premier choice for afternoon flights to witness a sunset over the Mediterranean. Sit behind the wing for the best view of the Dead Sea during the final 20 minutes of the flight. The contrast between the Israeli coast and the Jordanian desert during the descent is extraordinary.
Central European Plains
Aerial views of the patchwork fields and dense forests of Germany and Austria.
Eastern Alps
Glacial peaks and high-altitude valleys of the Austrian Tyrol and the Hohe Tauern range.
Danube River
Multiple crossings of Europe's second-longest river as you head toward the Balkans.
Cyprus
A distant view of the northern coastline of Cyprus as the plane traverses the Mediterranean.
Syrian Desert
The transition from the Mediterranean blue to the stark, golden hues of the northern desert.
Choose this side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. It offers better views of the rugged Balkan interior and the mountain ranges of Montenegro and Albania.
