Dutch Polders
Intricate geometric patterns of reclaimed land and canals immediately after takeoff from Schiphol.
Rhine River
A clear view of the winding Rhine as it cuts through western Germany's industrial and forest regions.
Austrian Alps
Spectacular views of high-altitude snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys in the heart of Europe.
Balkan Interior
The rugged, densely forested terrain of the Dinaric Alps crossing through Bosnia and Serbia.
Antalya Cityscape
A sweeping view of the urban sprawl nestled between the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea during final approach.
For morning flights, the left side avoids the harshest glare of the sun. This side is particularly rewarding during the descent into AYT, as aircraft often perform a wide left-hand turn over the Taurus Mountains, providing an excellent view of the rugged limestone peaks. In winter, the contrast between the snowy Alps and the green Turkish coast is breathtaking.

Frankfurt Skyline

Tyrolean Alps
The southern stretches of the Alps featuring jagged peaks and deep valleys near the Italian border.
Adriatic Coastline
Distant but shimmering views of the turquoise Croatian coast and its many islands.
Aegean Sea
Glittering blue waters and scattered Greek islands as the flight path moves towards southern Turkey.
Antalya Bay
A beautiful view of the Turkish Riviera's coastline and the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean.
The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Mediterranean Sea. Keep your camera ready about 2 hours into the flight for the best Alpine views. If the approach into Antalya is from the south over the sea, the right side will offer a stunning panorama of the Lara beach hotel strip and the cliffs near the city center.
