Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior sequence of diverse landscapes, from the Rhine River and the western edges of the Alps to the stunning Dalmatian coastline and the islands of the Aegean Sea before the final coastal approach into Paphos.

Right Side Highlights

🏰

Rhine Valley

The winding Rhine river and its historic vineyard-covered hills through Germany.

🏔️

Central Alps

Panoramic views of the high Swiss and Italian Alps, including glaciers and iconic massifs.

🏝️

Dalmatian Coast

The stunning turquoise waters and thousands of islands along the Croatian coastline.

☀️

Aegean Islands

Aerial views of Rhodes and the Dodecanese island chain scattered across the deep blue sea.

🌊

Akamas Peninsula

The rugged, pristine western tip of Cyprus and the EDRO III shipwreck visible on final approach.

For the most dramatic landing, the right side provides a front-row seat to the Paphos coastline. Book an afternoon flight to witness a spectacular sunset over the Mediterranean as you descend toward Paphos International.

🇳🇱

Dutch Polders

Intricate patterns of reclaimed land and canals visible immediately after takeoff from Schiphol.

🏔️

Austrian Alps

Spectacular views of the rugged peaks and deep valleys of the Tyrol region.

⛰️

Balkan Interior

The dense, forested mountain ranges of Serbia and Bulgaria stretching toward the horizon.

🏔️

Taurus Mountains

Dramatic snow-capped peaks in Southern Turkey as the flight path transitions toward the Mediterranean.

🇨🇾

Northern Cyprus Coast

The Pentadaktylos (Five Finger) mountain range visible as the plane begins its descent over the island.

Sit here for morning flights to have the sun behind you for better photography of the Alps. This side is particularly impressive during winter months when the Taurus mountains are heavily snow-covered.
