BVA → BUD
Which side of the plane to sit from Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (Beauvais) to Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (Budapest)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers spectacular views of the Alps to the south, Lake Constance, and the scenic Austrian Lake District, providing far more dramatic terrain than the northern side.
Search flights from BVA to BUD
The High Alps
Panoramic views of the snow-capped peaks of the Swiss and Austrian Alps visible on the southern horizon.
Lake Constance (Bodensee)
A massive, shimmering body of water marking the border between Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
Salzburg & Alpine Lakes
Bird's eye view of the Salzkammergut region, known for its turquoise alpine lakes like Attersee and Mondsee.
Lake Balaton
As the plane approaches Hungary from the west, the elongated silhouette of Central Europe's largest lake appears to the south.
The right side is the clear winner for scenic lovers; book a window seat behind the wing to capture the Alps without obstruction. During sunset flights, the alpine peaks glow with a stunning 'alpenglow' effect. Be aware that haze can sometimes obscure the mountains, so clear winter days offer the crispest visibility.

Champagne Region
Aerial views of the rolling vineyards and historic estates of northern France shortly after takeoff.
Luxembourg City
A chance to spot the dramatic cliffs and fortifications of the Alzette River valley.
Stuttgart & Southern Germany
Expansive views of the Swabian Jura and the dense urban landscapes of southern German cities.
Danube Bend
As you descend into Budapest, the dramatic 90-degree curve of the Danube at Visegrád is often visible.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. On the approach into BUD from the northwest, this side provides an excellent perspective of the Danube river's winding path into the city.
