Which side of the plane to sit from Brussels South Charleroi Airport (Charleroi) to Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior for this route as it tracks along the stunning Dalmatian coastline and offers a dramatic entry into Greek airspace via the Albanian Riviera.
Ardennes Forest
Dense green rolling hills and river valleys of southern Belgium and Luxembourg shortly after takeoff.
Swiss & Austrian Alps
A breathtaking traverse over the snow-capped peaks of the central alpine range.
Venice and the Lagoon
On clear days, the distinct shape of the Venetian island and its surrounding lagoon are visible to the east.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A highlight of the flight featuring hundreds of white limestone islands scattered in the deep blue Adriatic Sea.
Ceraunian Mountains
Rugged, steep mountain ridges in Albania that drop directly into the Ionian Sea just before the descent into Corfu.
For morning flights, the left side keeps the sun behind the aircraft, providing better lighting for photography. Look out for the Croatian islands roughly 30-40 minutes before arrival. During the final approach into CFU, this side offers an excellent view of the northern Corfu coastline and the Albanian border.
Western Alps
Views of Europe's highest massifs, often including distant glimpses of Mont Blanc depending on the airway.
Milan & Po Valley
The sprawling urban expanse of Northern Italy set against the backdrop of the southern alpine foothills.
Apennine Mountains
The 'spine' of Italy, featuring dramatic limestone peaks and high plateaus stretching toward the south.
Gargano Peninsula
The distinctive 'spur' of the Italian boot jutting into the Adriatic Sea during the mid-flight segment.
Corfu West Coast
As the plane banks for its final approach, you may see the famous cliffs and turquoise bays of Paleokastritsa.
Choose the right side for late afternoon or evening flights to enjoy the sunset over the Mediterranean. While over Italy, look for the contrast between the flat Po Valley and the rising Apennines. On the final descent, the right side provides a great perspective of the island's lush interior and western beaches.
