Central European Alps
Spectacular views of snow-capped peaks and glaciers across Switzerland and Northern Italy.
Balkan Mountains
Rugged and untouched mountain ranges spanning Albania and Northern Greece.
Attica Coastline
As you head south, watch the historic landscape of the Greek mainland meet the Aegean Sea.
Rhodes Town and Turkey
On approach to RHO, you often see the medieval walls of Rhodes Town and the nearby Turkish mountains.
Book a window seat in front of the wing to ensure unobstructed views of the Alps, which occur roughly 90-120 minutes into the flight. For the arrival into Rhodes, the left side is superior for spotting the Colossus' legendary harbor location and the proximity of the Anatolian coast of Turkey. Morning flights offer the best lighting for the Alps without the glare of the southern sun.

The Peloponnese
Views of the southern Greek peninsula, known for its deep bays and mountainous interior.
The Cyclades

Aegean Sunset
On late afternoon flights, the right side provides a front-row seat to the sun setting over the Mediterranean.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun while flying southeast. This side offers better views of the vast Aegean island chains during the descent. Keep an eye out for the distinct shapes of the Cyclades islands as you cross into Greek airspace. If the flight path takes a more southerly route, you may even spot the Corinth Canal.
