Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior sequence of views starting with the Western Alps, followed by the magnificent turquoise coastline of the Adriatic Sea and the iconic Ionian Islands of Greece.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Central Alps

Glaciated peaks and high-altitude lakes of the Swiss and Italian alpine borders.

🏝️

Dalmatian Coast

The stunning archipelago of Croatia with hundreds of islands scattered in the blue Adriatic.

🌊

Ionian Islands

Famous islands like Corfu, Lefkada, and Zakynthos with their distinctive white cliffs.

🏰

Mani Peninsula

The wild and rocky southernmost finger of the Peloponnese featuring historic tower houses.

🛬

Kithira Approach

Direct views of the island's dramatic western cliffs and hidden coves during the descent.

The right side is the prime choice for coastal photography. Mid-flight, look down for the intricate patterns of the Croatian islands. As you approach Kithira, the late afternoon sun illuminates the Ionian Sea, creating high-contrast views of the coastline. This side also avoids direct glare during southbound morning flights.

Left Side Highlights

🥨

Bavarian Landscape

Aerial views of southern Germany's rolling green hills and the outskirts of Munich.

🏔️

Eastern Alps

Jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Austrian and Slovenian mountain ranges.

🌄

Pindus Mountain Range

The rugged 'spine of Greece' with deep valleys and traditional stone villages.

🏛️

Gulf of Corinth

The narrow stretch of water separating the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese peninsula.

Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Balkans. Keep your eyes peeled as you pass over central Greece; the terrain is incredibly mountainous and dramatic. During the final approach, you may see the northern tip of Kithira and the Peloponnese coast extending north.
