Our Recommendation
9.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a spectacular combination of the turquoise Mediterranean coastline, the intricate island chains of the Adriatic Sea, and a direct view of the highest peaks of the Austrian Alps during the descent.

Left Side Highlights
9.2
🌊

Antalya Gulf

Dramatic views of the turquoise coastline and the Bey Mountains rising directly from the sea upon takeoff.

🏝️

Greek Archipelago

Aerial perspectives of the Dodecanese and Cyclades islands scattered across the deep blue Aegean Sea.

🏰

Dalmatian Coast

The stunning Croatian coastline featuring the historic city of Dubrovnik and the elongated islands of Hvar and Brač.

🚤

Adriatic Panoramas

Expansive views of the open Adriatic Sea and the distant Italian coastline on clear days.

🏔️

Hohe Tauern Range

Direct views of Austria's highest peaks, including the Grossglockner, as the flight enters the heart of the Alps.

🥨

Bavarian Prealps

The transition from rugged mountain peaks to the rolling green foothills of Southern Bavaria.

Sit behind the wing to capture the full scale of the Croatian islands. On afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side, so polarized sunglasses are recommended to reduce glare from the sea. The most scenic part occurs roughly 2 hours into the flight as you cross the Adriatic toward the Alps.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Taurus Mountains

Rugged, snow-capped limestone peaks of the Western Taurus range immediately after departure from Antalya.

💧

Lake Beyşehir

A massive freshwater lake in the Turkish interior surrounded by National Park forests.

🌲

Balkan Interior

Dense forests and deep river canyons of the Dinaric Alps through Bosnia and Serbia.

❄️

Northern Limestone Alps

Sharp, jagged peaks and high plateaus as the flight crosses from Austria into Germany.

⛵

Chiemsee

Bavaria's largest lake, known as the 'Bavarian Sea,' visible during the final descent into Munich.

This side is ideal for morning flights as the sun will be behind the plane, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Balkan mountains. Watch for the 'Fairytale' Bavarian lakes about 15-20 minutes before landing. It is generally cooler and less prone to sun glare than the left side.
