Which side of the plane to sit from Cluj-Napoca International Airport (Cluj-napoca) to Václav Havel Airport Prague (Prague)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers breathtaking vistas of the High Tatra mountain range in the distance and the intricate patterns of the Moravian countryside.
High Tatras
The jagged, snow-dusted peaks of the highest range in the Carpathians visible over Slovakia.
Brno Cityscape
A clear view of the Spilberk Castle and the Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul in Moravia's capital.
Moravian Karst
Deeply forested highlands characterized by hidden caves and limestone canyons north of Brno.
Eastern Bohemia
A patchwork of agricultural fields and traditional Czech villages during the final approach phase.
Choose the right side for morning departures to avoid direct sunlight. The High Tatras are a highlight; they appear mid-flight to the north. Keep your camera ready as the plane enters Czech airspace for the best terrain details.
Apuseni Mountains
Rugged karst plateaus and deep green valleys visible shortly after takeoff from Cluj.
Pannonian Basin
The expansive, golden-hued fields of the Great Hungarian Plain stretching toward the southern horizon.
Danube River
The silver thread of Europe's second-longest river appearing as the flight skirts the Slovak border.
Bohemian Fortresses
Small castles and historical manors dotting the landscape of Central Bohemia during the descent.
Best for afternoon flights when the sun is behind the plane, illuminating the Romanian mountains. During the descent, look for the Vltava river valley as it snakes toward Prague.
