Western Alps Peaks
Views of the highest European massifs, including distant glimpses of the Mont Blanc range.
Italian Lakes
The deep blue waters of Lake Como and Lake Garda nestled at the foot of the mountains.
Cyclades Islands
A stunning birds-eye view of iconic islands like Mykonos and Santorini from high altitude.
Crete
The massive, mountainous silhouette of Crete visible to the south while crossing the Mediterranean.
Tel Aviv Shoreline
A perfect view of the Mediterranean coastline, Jaffa, and the city's modern skyscrapers on final approach.
The Right Side is unbeatable for the approach into Ben Gurion, as planes typically bank over the sea, offering a full view of the Tel Aviv 'White City.' For morning flights, this side provides excellent soft light over the Aegean islands. Try to sit in front of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't obstruct the view of the Italian lakes.

Central Swiss Alps
Dense clusters of snow-capped peaks and deep valleys shortly after departure.
Dalmatian Coast
The intricate network of islands and turquoise waters along the Croatian coastline.
Pindus Mountains
The rugged and dramatic limestone peaks of northern Greece and Albania.
The Aegean Sea
Vast blue expanses dotted with the northern Sporades and Euboea islands.
Haifa & Mount Carmel

Choose this side for the best lighting during afternoon flights to avoid direct glare. Keep a close watch roughly 20 minutes after takeoff for the most dramatic Alpine ridges. During the final approach, look for the Sea of Galilee far on the horizon to the east if visibility is clear.
