Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic departure over the Taurus Mountains and provides a better angle to see the distant Alpine chain while cruising across Central Europe.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Taurus Mountains

Spectacular views of the rugged limestone peaks of the Western Taurus range immediately after takeoff from Antalya.

🏝️

Aegean Coastline

The intricate coastline of Western Turkey and the scattered Greek islands visible as you head northwest.

⛰️

Rila & Pirin Ranges

The highest peaks of the Balkan Peninsula located in Bulgaria, often snow-capped during winter months.

🌊

The Danube River

Glittering views of the Danube as it winds through the Balkan and Pannonian regions.

🏙️

Frankfurt Skyline

Depending on the exact flight corridor, you may see the skyscrapers of Germany's financial hub to the west.

Sit on the left for the best mountain views upon departure. For afternoon flights, this side will be in the sun during the first half of the journey but offers stunning 'Golden Hour' views of the German landscape during the descent into Münster.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
💧

Turkish Lake District

Views of the turquoise waters of Lake Eğirdir and Lake Beyşehir shortly after reaching cruising altitude.

🌲

Carpathian Arc

The dense forests and rolling hills of the Southern Carpathians in Romania and Slovakia.

🌾

Pannonian Plain

The vast, flat agricultural heartland of Hungary, appearing as a geometric patchwork from above.

🏰

Bohemian Massif

Ancient forested mountains on the border of the Czech Republic and Germany.

🌳

Teutoburg Forest

The iconic ridge of the Teutoburg Forest appears just before the final approach into FMO airport.

The right side is ideal if you want to avoid direct sunlight during a morning or midday flight. Keep an eye out for the city of Prague, which often appears on this side during the transition from Czech to German airspace.
