Dubrovnik Old Town
Aerial view of the iconic medieval walls and terracotta roofs of the Pearl of the Adriatic shortly after departure.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A stunning sequence of limestone islands including KorΔula and Hvar set against deep turquoise waters.
Bernese Alps
Snow-capped peaks of the Swiss Alps, often providing views of the Eiger and Jungfrau massifs.
Lake Geneva
The vast, crescent-shaped lake bordering France and Switzerland, visible as the flight traverses Central Europe.
Greater London
On clear days, the urban sprawl of London and its iconic skyscrapers can be seen to the north as the plane enters UK airspace.
Sit on the left for the best chance to see Dubrovnik's city walls; most departures head northwest, placing the city directly beneath or slightly to the left. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the sun's glare on this side. During the descent into LBA, the left side provides a wide view of the northern English landscape.

Austrian & German Alps
Views of the high-altitude glaciers and jagged ridges of the eastern Alpine chain.
English Channel
Busy shipping lanes and the white cliffs of the southern UK coast as you cross from mainland Europe.
Humber Estuary

The Pennines
The 'backbone of England', featuring rolling green moors and stone-walled fields just before landing.
The right side is perfect for mountain enthusiasts, offering a closer look at the Dinaric and Central Alps. As the plane approaches Leeds Bradford, this side often gets the best views of the Yorkshire Dales and the rural landscape of the Wharfe Valley. In the afternoon, this side remains in the shade, making photography easier.
