Thuringian Forest
Dense green ridges and rolling hills of central Germany visible shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
High Alpine Peaks
Spectacular vistas of the Hohe Tauern range and potentially the Grossglockner, Austria's highest peak.
Dinaric Alps
The rugged, limestone karst landscape stretching across Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro.
Mount Olympus
The majestic, snow-dusted home of the Greek gods dominates the horizon to the southwest during the descent.
The right side is highly recommended for mid-day or late afternoon flights to avoid direct glare while viewing the Alps. The highlight is Mount Olympus; keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing as the aircraft begins its descent over northern Greece.
