Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior experience, featuring the stunning Balearic Islands, the majestic silhouette of Mount Etna in Sicily, and a world-class descent over the Dead Sea and the Jordanian desert.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Balearic Islands

Direct views over Mallorca’s Serra de Tramuntana and the vibrant blue bays of the archipelago.

πŸ”₯

Mount Etna

Europe's most active volcano is often visible as you pass the southern tip of Italy and Sicily.

πŸ–οΈ

Southern Crete

The steep, dramatic cliffs of southern Crete meeting the Libyan Sea are a highlight of the mid-flight crossing.

πŸ§‚

The Dead Sea

The iconic salt-rimmed turquoise waters of the lowest point on Earth during the descent into Amman.

🏜️

Judean & Jordanian Deserts

A stunning transition from the coastal plains to the arid, golden moonscapes of the desert rift valley.

The right side is unbeatable for the approach into Amman. Ask for a window seat away from the wing for the best view of the Dead Sea. Afternoon flights provide incredible golden-hour lighting over the desert canyons, though the sun will be on this side, so bring sunglasses.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Costa Brava

Aerial views of the rugged Catalan coastline and the sparkling Gulf of Lion shortly after departure.

⛰️

Corsica & Sardinia

The dramatic mountainous northern ridges of Corsica and the wild landscape of the Strait of Bonifacio.

πŸŒ‹

Italian Mainland

Depending on the flight path, glimpses of the Tyrrhenian coast and potentially the profile of Mount Vesuvius.

πŸ›οΈ

Greek Islands

A mosaic of the Cyclades or the northern coast of Crete, characterized by turquoise waters and white villages.

πŸ™οΈ

Levant Coastline

Clear views of the dense urban skylines of Tel Aviv and the Carmel mountains near Haifa before crossing into Jordan.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. This side is better for spotting the dense greenery of the Mediterranean islands and the sophisticated urban sprawl of the Israeli coast during the final hour of flight.
