Which side of the plane to sit from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Kayseri Erkilet Airport (Kayseri)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular crossing of the Eastern Alps and a breathtaking view of the volcanic Mount Erciyes during the final descent into Kayseri.
Austrian Alps
Stunning snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys as the flight crosses over the heart of the Alps.
Dinaric Alps
The rugged and rocky terrain of the Balkan Peninsula stretching through Bosnia and Serbia.
Sea of Marmara
Views of the small islands and shipping traffic in the sea separating the Aegean from the Black Sea.
Mount Erciyes
The massive dormant volcano that dominates the Kayseri skyline, visible during the final descent.
Kayseri Cityscape
A clear view of the urban sprawl of Kayseri set against the backdrop of ancient volcanic landscapes.
The right side is essential for seeing Mount Erciyes, the most iconic landmark near Kayseri. During winter, the Alpine crossing is particularly majestic. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for photography of the mountains and the Anatolian plateau.
Rhine River Valley
Aerial views of the winding Rhine river and German industrial heartlands shortly after departure.
Danube River
Vistas of the Danube as it flows through Central Europe, potentially passing near Vienna or Budapest.
Istanbul and Bosphorus
A high-altitude view of the bridges connecting Europe and Asia as the flight enters Turkish airspace.
Black Sea Coast
Glances of the northern Turkish coastline and the deep blue waters of the Black Sea.
Anatolian Steppe
The vast, golden plains of Central Anatolia stretching towards the horizon.
Choose the left side for better lighting during morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. Look out for the Bosphorus transition about 3 hours into the flight. If the approach to Kayseri is from the north, you might see the city outskirts first.
