Which side of the plane to sit from Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (Belgrade) to Larnaca International Airport (Larnaca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled view of the iconic Mount Olympus and the picturesque island chains scattered throughout the Aegean Sea.
Kopaonik Massif
Fly directly over Serbia's premier mountain range known for its dense forests and winter resorts.
Mount Olympus
The legendary home of the Greek gods, standing tall as the highest peak in Greece near the Aegean coast.
Sporades Archipelago
A cluster of green islands including Skiathos and Skopelos set against the turquoise sea.
Cyclades Gems
On clear days, see the distant white-washed beauty of islands like Naxos and the volcanic rim of Santorini.
Levantine Deep
Breathtaking views of the vast Mediterranean Sea and major international shipping lanes heading toward the Suez.
Larnaca Salt Lake
Just before landing, view the unique ecosystem of the salt lakes and the landmark Hala Sultan Tekke mosque.
Choose the right side for the best chance to see Mount Olympus, which is usually visible about midway through the flight. Late afternoon flights provide a beautiful sunset view over the Mediterranean. Use a window seat behind the wing to ensure the engine does not block your view of the Greek islands as they pass beneath.
Belgrade Exit
Aerial views of the Sava and Danube confluence during the initial climb out of Serbia.
Balkan Peaks
Rugged mountain terrain of Eastern Serbia and Western Bulgaria visible during the first half of the flight.
Rila National Park
Dramatic alpine landscapes containing the highest peaks in the entire Balkan Peninsula.
Rhodes Island
The distinct emerald shape of the largest Dodecanese island surrounded by the deep blue Aegean.
Turkish Coast
Distant glimpses of the scenic Lycian Way and the snow-capped Taurus mountains to the north.
Kyrenia Range
The narrow and jagged mountain range stretching along the northern coast of Cyprus visible during descent.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the Balkan peaks. Keep a lookout for the Dodecanese islands approximately 60 to 70 minutes into the flight. During winter, the Bulgarian mountains provide a stunning white landscape that is best viewed from this side.
