Which side of the plane to sit from Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu) to Aktion National Airport (Preveza)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior perspective of the historic Corfu Town skyline during departure and follows the dramatic rugged coastline of the Epirus mainland throughout the short flight.
Corfu Old Fortress
Unrivaled views of the Venetian fortifications and the Spianada square immediately after rotation from CFU.
Pontikonisi
The iconic Mouse Island and the Vlacherna Monastery are visible just south of the runway threshold.
Igoumenitsa Port
A clear view of the bustling ferry terminal and the natural fjord-like bay of the Thesprotia capital.
Syvota Islands
Small, lush green islets with Caribbean-style turquoise lagoons situated just off the mainland coast.
Ambracian Gulf
The unique ecosystem of the Amvrakikos wetlands and the narrow entrance to the gulf near the flight's end.
Sit on the left for the most iconic Greek landmarks. Since the flight is extremely short and low-altitude, keep your camera ready from the moment of take-off. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the mainland mountains and the colorful houses of the Ionian coast perfectly.
Lefkimmi Coastline
The sandy southern tip of Corfu island featuring shallow, light blue waters and salt pans.
Paxoi Island
The dense olive groves and steep white cliffs of the smallest Ionian island group.
Antipaxoi
Famous for Voutoumi beach, the water color here is visible even from cruising altitude as a bright neon blue.
Parga Panorama
While on the mainland, this colorful town is often visible across the water from the right side during the descent.
Ionian Horizon
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Ionian Sea extending toward the Italian coast.
Choose the right side if you prefer island spotting over mainland scenery. This side is particularly spectacular during evening flights, as you will witness the sun setting over the Ionian Sea. Keep an eye out for the white cliffs on the western side of Paxoi, which are a geological highlight of the region.
