Search flights from CRL to BUD
The Ardennes
Deep green forested ridges and narrow river valleys of southern Belgium and northern Luxembourg.
Northern Limestone Alps
A stunning panoramic view of the snow-capped Austrian peaks stretching across the southern horizon.
Lake Traunsee
The deep blue waters of the Austrian Lake District tucked between steep mountain slopes.
The Danube Bend
The dramatic, scenic curve of the Danube River at Visegrád just before entering Budapest.
Buda Castle Hill
A spectacular view of the historic Royal Palace and Matthias Church during the final approach.
This is the best side for mountain enthusiasts. For the best photography of the Alps, book a morning flight to avoid the midday sun glare. Keep your camera ready about 50-60 minutes into the flight as the plane clears the clouds over southern Germany and the Alpine peaks emerge.

Luxembourg City
Bird's-eye view of the historic Alzette river valley and the modern European district shortly after departure.
Bavarian Plains
Vast expanses of neatly organized German farmland and the winding Main-Danube Canal.
Vienna Metropolitan Area
The sprawling Austrian capital and the wide expanse of the Danube River crossing through the city.
Hungarian Lowlands
The flat, fertile landscapes of the Pannonian Basin as the aircraft prepares for its final descent.
Sit on the left if you prefer urban landscapes; you will often see the outskirts of Munich and the full layout of Vienna. In the evening, the city lights of these major hubs provide a beautiful contrast against the dark Central European plains.
