The winding Rhine River and its surrounding vineyards immediately following takeoff.
Grossglockner
A clear view of Austria's highest peak and the surrounding Hohe Tauern National Park.
Istrian Peninsula
The heart-shaped landmass of Istria where the green land meets the deep blue Northern Adriatic.
Kornati Islands
A dense archipelago of nearly 100 uninhabited islands appearing like pearls in the water.
Dalmatian Coast
Spectacular aerial views of BraΔ, Hvar, and KorΔula islands with their hidden coves.
Old Town Dubrovnik
On standard approaches from the north, the right side often sees the iconic walled city just before touchdown.
Sit on the right side for the ultimate coastal experience. The final 30 minutes are the most scenic as the aircraft descends parallel to the Croatian shoreline. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the harsh glare of the afternoon sun reflecting off the Adriatic Sea.
