Belgrade Confluence
Aerial view of the meeting point of the Sava and Danube rivers shortly after takeoff.
Julian Alps
Dramatic views of Mount Triglav and the jagged limestone peaks of Slovenia.
The Dolomites
The distinctive pale, rugged peaks of the Italian Alps visible in the distance to the south.
Glarus Alps
Impressive Swiss mountain scenery featuring the UNESCO World Heritage Tectonic Arena Sardona.
Lake Zurich
A stunning view of the long, curved lake and the 'Gold Coast' during the final approach.
Sit on the left for the most iconic mountain views. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you or to your side, minimizing glare on the window. For the best photos of the Alps, try to book a seat ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the peaks during the cruise and descent phases.

Pannonian Plain
The vast, flat agricultural landscapes of Vojvodina and eastern Croatia.
Austrian Central Alps
Views of the high glaciated peaks of the Hohe Tauern range to the north.
Lake Constance
The massive 'Bodensee' marking the border between Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
Rhine Falls
If the flight approaches Zurich from the north, you may spot Europe's most powerful waterfall.
The right side is excellent for spotting Lake Constance (Bodensee). If the airport is using northern approach runways, the right side provides a great view of the Swiss countryside and northern suburbs. Watch for the contrast between the flat plains of the early flight and the rolling Swiss hills at the end.
