CPH β BEG
Which side of the plane to sit from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen) to Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (Belgrade)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most iconic views on this route, including the Oresund Bridge immediately after takeoff and a spectacular perspective of Budapest and the Danube River during the descent phase.
Oresund Bridge
Visible shortly after takeoff from CPH, this architectural marvel connects Denmark and Sweden across the blue straits.
RΓΌgen Island
Germany's largest island featuring white chalk cliffs and the Jasmund National Park coastline.
Bratislava Skyline
The capital of Slovakia and its hilltop castle appear as the flight passes over the Danube region.
Budapest & Danube Bend
Stunning views of the Hungarian Parliament and the dramatic 'U' turn of the Danube north of the city.
Fruska Gora
The only significant mountain in the Serbian Vojvodina province, visible just before the final approach into Belgrade.
Book an 'A' window seat for the best angle. Morning flights offer excellent lighting for the Oresund Bridge, while evening flights provide a glittering view of Budapest's illuminated bridges. If the flight path takes a more easterly route, you might also catch the Polish city of Szczecin.
MΓΈn's White Cliffs
Dramatic 120-meter high chalk cliffs dropping into the Baltic Sea on the southern edge of Denmark.
Prague Cityscape
The 'City of a Hundred Spires' is often visible roughly 45 minutes into the flight depending on the airway.
Distant Austrian Alps
On clear days, the jagged snow-capped peaks of the Eastern Alps are visible on the far southern horizon.
Lake Balaton
The largest lake in Central Europe, appearing as a long turquoise strip in the heart of Hungary.
Belgrade Fortress
During the landing pattern at BEG, you can often see Kalemegdan Park where the Sava meets the Danube.
Choose an 'F' window seat to avoid the glare of the afternoon sun when flying south. This side is superior for seeing the historic center of Prague and the vast agricultural patterns of the Pannonian Basin. In winter, the snow-covered Tatra mountains may be visible in the distance to the south-east.
