Which side of the plane to sit from Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu) to Stuttgart Airport (Stuttgart)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers an unparalleled view of the sparkling Adriatic coastline, the fjord-like Bay of Kotor, and the dramatic jagged peaks of the Eastern Alps during the descent.
Corfu North Coast
Aerial view of the Sidari cliffs and the turquoise waters surrounding the Diapontia Islands shortly after takeoff.
Bay of Kotor
The dramatic winding bay of Montenegro, often referred to as Europe's southernmost fjord, surrounded by steep limestone cliffs.
Dalmatian Archipelago
Thousands of Croatian islands like Hvar and BraΔ dotting the deep blue Adriatic Sea in a stunning mosaic pattern.
Julian & Austrian Alps
Breathtaking views of snow-capped peaks including Triglav and the High Tauern range as the flight crosses into Central Europe.
Lake Constance (Bodensee)
The massive lake where Germany, Austria, and Switzerland meet, usually visible on the final approach leg toward Stuttgart.
For the best experience, book a morning flight to avoid the glare of the western sun over the Adriatic. Choose a seat forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the coastline and the Alpine ridges. In winter, the contrast between the blue sea and the white peaks is exceptionally sharp.
Pindus Mountain Range
The rugged 'spine of Greece' stretching across the mainland with deep gorges and high limestone peaks visible just after departure.
Lake Skadar
The largest lake in the Balkan Peninsula, straddling the border of Albania and Montenegro, known for its diverse birdlife.
Dinaric Alps
Continuous chains of mountains through Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, showcasing wild, forested karst landscapes.
Swabian Jura
The forested plateau of Southwest Germany, featuring deep valleys and the occasional glimpse of hilltop castles like Hohenzollern.
The right side is ideal for catching the sunrise on early morning departures, illuminating the Balkan mountains. It provides a more terrestrial view of the rugged inland terrain. Keep an eye out for the Danube river valley as you approach Southern Germany.
