Paris Skyline
On clear departures, the Eiffel Tower and the sprawl of Paris are visible in the distance to the south.
The Alps
A majestic long-distance view of the snow-capped Swiss and Austrian Alps spanning the horizon.
Lake Constance
The vast blue expanse of the Bodensee bordering Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
Lake Balaton
Europe's largest freshwater lake, distinctive for its turquoise water and elongated shape.
Făgăraș Mountains
The highest peaks of the Southern Carpathians, often featuring snow until early summer.
The Right Side is the clear winner for mountain lovers. Try to book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Alps and the Carpathians perfectly. Ensure your window is clear, as the high-altitude ice crystals can blur the distant mountain peaks. The approach into OTP often passes right over the scenic Prahova Valley.

The winding path of the Main river near Frankfurt and the dense forests of the Spessart.

For the best visibility of the German and Hungarian landscapes, choose a window seat forward of the wing. On late afternoon flights, this side will have the best lighting without the direct sun glare, making it ideal for photography. Watch for the lights of Budapest if flying at night.
