The Austrian Alps
Panoramic views of the jagged, snow-covered peaks of the Central Eastern Alps.
Dinaric Alps
The limestone karst topography of the Balkans, featuring deep valleys and rugged ridges.
Adriatic Glances
On clear days, the distant turquoise waters of the Adriatic Sea along the Croatian coast are visible.
Taurus Mountains
The dramatic southern border of the Anatolian plateau with its high-altitude peaks and deep canyons.
Anatolian Steppe
The golden-hued, endless rolling hills and plains that define the interior of Turkey.
Choose the right side for morning flights for the best illumination of the Alps. The mountain views are most spectacular during the winter months when snow cover is at its peak. Avoid seats directly over the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the rugged Balkan terrain.

Amsterdam & Polders
Distinctive bird's-eye view of the historic canal rings and the reclaimed land patterns of the Netherlands.
The Rhine River
The winding silver ribbon of the Rhine cutting through the heart of industrial Germany.
Istanbul Skyline
If the flight path tracks north, you can spot the sprawling metropolis and the Bosphorus strait connecting two continents.
Lake Tuz
The massive, shimmering white salt lake of Central Anatolia, which is especially vibrant in the midday sun.
Konya Outskirts
The rapid urban expansion of Konya merging into the vast Anatolian agricultural plains.
Sit on the left for evening flights to avoid direct sunlight. Keep your camera ready about 30 minutes before descent to capture the surreal white expanse of Lake Tuz, which looks like a patch of snow in the middle of the desert.
