Which side of the plane to sit from Kayseri Erkilet Airport (Kayseri) to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the Black Sea coastline, the iconic Bosphorus Strait in Istanbul, and the scenic Rhine river valley during the descent into the Netherlands.
Black Sea Coast
Aerial views of the lush green Pontic Mountains meeting the deep blue sea.
Istanbul & Bosphorus
The world-famous bridges connecting Asia and Europe and the Golden Horn.
Carpathian Mountains
The sweeping arc of the snow-capped peaks across Romania and Hungary.
Frankfurt am Main
The impressive 'Mainhattan' skyscraper skyline and one of Europe's busiest hubs.
Port of Rotterdam
One of the world's largest industrial ports visible during the final approach.
Amsterdam Canals
The unique concentric ring of historic canals visible just before landing.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the sun. Approximately 60-80 minutes into the flight, keep a close watch for the Bosphorus crossing. Request a seat ahead of the wing for an unobstructed view of the Rhine river's winding path through Germany.
Mount Erciyes
Stunning views of the massive dormant volcano right after takeoff from Kayseri.
Ankara Skyline
A clear view of the sprawling Turkish capital and the Anitkabir monument.
Balkan Mountains
Rugged ridges and deep valleys across Bulgaria and Serbia.
Southern German Landscape
Picturesque villages and dense forests of the Bavaria and Baden-Wurttemberg regions.
Dutch Waterways
The intricate network of canals and polders as the plane descends into Schiphol.
Sit on the left for the best view of Mount Erciyes immediately after departure. During late afternoon flights, this side will experience direct sunlight, so keep the window shade partially down to avoid glare while looking over Central Europe.
