Which side of the plane to sit from Brussels Airport (Brussels) to Paphos International Airport (Paphos)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior sequence of coastal vistas, including the Adriatic Sea, the Greek archipelagos, and the dramatic natural beauty of the Akamas Peninsula upon arrival.
Swiss-Italian Alps
A spectacular panorama of the high Alps, including some of the most famous glaciers in Europe.
Dalmatian Coast
The stunning contrast of white limestone islands against the deep blue of the Adriatic Sea.
Aegean Archipelago
A bird's eye view of the Cyclades and other Greek islands, appearing like scattered gems in the sea.
Akamas Peninsula
The rugged, untouched nature reserve on the western tip of Cyprus, visible just before landing.
Paphos Coastline
Views of the Paphos lighthouse and archaeological park as the aircraft lines up for the runway.
This is the premier side for island spotting. During the descent into Paphos, the right side usually provides an incredible view of the coastline and the city's historical sites. For afternoon flights, be aware that the sun will be on this side, so window shades or sunglasses may be necessary until the descent begins.
Austrian Alps
Breathtaking views of the jagged peaks and snow-capped summits of the central European mountain range.
Bavarian Foothills
Quaint German villages and lush green landscapes as the plane cruises toward the south.
Balkan Interior
Rugged and wild mountain terrain across Serbia and Bulgaria, featuring deep valleys and river systems.
Antalya Coast
The sparkling turquoise waters of the Turkish Riviera as the flight path transitions over the Mediterranean.
Kyrenia Mountains
The distinct Five Finger mountain range of northern Cyprus visible during the final stages of flight.
The left side is ideal for those who prefer alpine scenery and mountain ranges. For the best lighting and to avoid glare, this side is preferable during morning departures when the sun is in the south. Sit ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Turkish coastline before the final turn toward Paphos.
