Which side of the plane to sit from Dalaman International Airport (Dalaman) to Düsseldorf Airport (Duesseldorf)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side is superior for this route as it offers a front-row seat to the stunning turquoise waters of the Adriatic coastline and the most dramatic perspectives of the Alpine peaks during the crossing into Central Europe.
