Which side of the plane to sit from Antalya International Airport (Antalya) to Billund Airport (Billund)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior sequence of views, starting with the dramatic ascent over the Taurus Mountains, followed by the clearest perspectives of Sofia, Lake Balaton, and the historic urban layout of Prague before descending over the Port of Hamburg.
Gulf of Antalya
Crystal clear turquoise waters and rugged coastal cliffs immediately after takeoff.
Taurus Mountains
Stunning snow-capped peaks and deep limestone valleys of the Western Taurus range.
Sofia
A bird's eye view of the Bulgarian capital nestled against the Vitosha mountain massif.
Lake Balaton
The distinct turquoise color of Central Europe's largest lake in the heart of Hungary.
Prague
The winding Vltava River and the historic bridges and spires of the Czech capital.
Hamburg Port
The massive industrial cranes and container terminals of one of Europe's largest ports.
Opt for a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine exhaust distortion. On morning departures, the sun is positioned in the east, providing excellent lighting for the Turkish coastline. As you approach Denmark, the left side typically offers a better view of the Elbe river estuary and the transition into the Jutland peninsula.
Antalya City
Expansive views of the city center and the Düden Waterfalls cascading into the Mediterranean.
Balkan Range
The central mountain backbone of Bulgaria featuring deep forests and high ridges.
Danube River
The great European waterway winding through the landscapes of Serbia and Hungary.
Bohemian Forest
Vast stretches of dense greenery along the border of the Czech Republic and Germany.
Leipzig
The urban sprawl of this historic German trade city and its surrounding lake district.
Danish Coastline
The beautiful sandy beaches and small islands of the southern Danish archipelago during descent.
The right side is the preferred choice for evening flights, offering spectacular sunset views over Western Europe. Shortly after takeoff, watch for the Düden Waterfalls on the city cliffs. Depending on the landing direction at Billund, this side can offer a great view of the LEGOLAND park layout during the final seconds of the flight.
