BVA → KIV
Which side of the plane to sit from Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (Beauvais) to Chişinău International Airport (Chisinau)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior view of the dramatic Carpathian Mountains and the winding Danube River, offering a scenic entry into Eastern Europe.
Black Forest
Deep green canopies and rolling hills of Southwest Germany visible in the distance.
Northern Alps
Distant glimpses of snow-capped peaks to the south on clear days while over Southern Germany.
The Danube River
The wide blue curves of Europe's second-longest river winding through Austria and Hungary.
Carpathian Arc
The dramatic bend of the Romanian mountains, featuring rugged peaks and dense forests.
Codru Vineyards
The rolling green hills and world-famous wine regions of central Moldova during the final approach.
This side is exceptional for sunset flights as the light hits the Transylvanian mountains. As the plane descends into KIV, look for the sprawling vineyards that define the Moldovan landscape. On clear days, the distant Alps are often visible over Southern Germany.
Picardy Plains
The lush agricultural patchwork and rural hamlets of Northern France shortly after takeoff.
Frankfurt Skyline
The cluster of skyscrapers in Germany's financial hub, often visible if the northern corridor is taken.
High Tatra Mountains
The sharp, glaciated granite peaks along the Slovak-Polish border appearing mid-flight.
Iași Cityscape
Romania's eastern cultural hub, featuring the massive Palace of Culture just before the Moldovan border.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight glare. Keep an eye out for the jagged High Tatra mountains about two-thirds through the journey for the most dramatic terrain on this side.
