Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a spectacular vantage point for the Swiss Alps and the iconic descent past Corfu's Old Town and Mouse Island.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🌲

Black Forest & Vosges

Lush green corridors of the German and French borderlands visible as you head south toward Switzerland.

πŸ”οΈ

Bernese Oberland

Unrivaled views of the highest Swiss peaks, including the Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau massifs.

πŸ’§

Lake Garda

Italy's largest lake, appearing as a deep blue wedge carved into the base of the Italian Alps.

πŸ›οΈ

Corfu Old Town

A breathtaking view of the UNESCO-listed historic center and the Old Fortress during the final approach.

🏝️

Mouse Island (Pontikonisi)

The most photographed spot in Corfu, located directly under the flight path just seconds before touchdown.

The right side is essential for the 'scenic' landing at CFU. If the aircraft approaches from the north (Runway 34), you will fly directly past the city center. For afternoon flights, the sun will be behind you, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Swiss Alps and the Greek coastline.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏰

Brussels & Brabant

View of the Belgian capital's eastern outskirts and the rolling hills of the Walloon region shortly after takeoff.

πŸ”οΈ

Austrian & Italian Alps

Aerial views of the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Tyrol and Dolomites regions depending on the specific airway.

πŸ›Ά

Venetian Lagoon

On clear days, the intricate network of islands and canals of Venice is visible along the upper Adriatic coast.

🌊

Dalmatian Coastline

A distant but beautiful view of the rugged Croatian islands scattered across the blue Adriatic Sea.

⛰️

Ceraunian Mountains

The dramatic coastal mountains of Albania as the flight begins its final descent toward the Ionian islands.

The left side is best for seeing the sunrise on early morning departures. During the descent, watch for the stark contrast between the turquoise Ionian waters and the rugged Albanian coastline. Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the Alps isn't obstructed by the engine.
