Albanian Riviera
Stunning coastal mountains and turquoise waters visible immediately after takeoff.
Bay of Kotor
The dramatic fjord-like winding bay of Montenegro is a major highlight of the Adriatic route.
Julian & Austrian Alps
Direct views of Slovenia's Triglav and the towering limestone massifs of the Austrian peaks.
Munich & Allianz Arena
The Bavarian capital and its famous glowing white stadium are frequently visible on the descent path.
Elbe River Basin
As you approach Hamburg, watch the massive shipping lanes and the winding Elbe river leading to the port.
This is the premier side for photography. Ensure you are looking out within the first 20 minutes for the Balkan coast. For flights arriving in the late afternoon, the lighting on the Alps is spectacular. Watch for the change from mountains to the flat Elbe valley during the final 15 minutes of flight.

Ionian Sea Vistas
Deep blue expanses as you depart the island of Corfu and head towards the Adriatic.
Distant Italian Coast
On clear days, the heel of Italy (Puglia) is visible on the horizon across the Otranto Strait.
Tyrolian Alps
Aerial views of the snow-capped western Austrian Alps during the mid-flight crossing.
Lower Saxony Plains
The landscape transforms into the characteristic green and gold patchwork of the North German Plain.
Sit here if you prefer a smoother light profile during northbound morning flights to avoid direct sun. Keep an eye out for the Venetian Lagoon far to the west about 45-60 minutes into the flight.
