Which side of the plane to sit from Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow) to Zürich Airport (Zurich)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic Alpine peaks and the high-altitude landscapes of Central Europe during the descent into Switzerland.
Moscow Southern Belt
Expansive views of the residential districts and dense forests surrounding Domodedovo Airport.
Carpathian Peaks
Distant silhouettes of the High Tatra Mountains visible along the Polish and Slovakian border.
Bohemian Massif
The dense green canopy of the Šumava forest area as the route traverses the Czech-German border.
Swiss Alps
Panoramic views of the snow-capped Alpine range dominating the southern horizon during descent.
Choose a window seat well behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Alps. Morning flights offer the best lighting for photography, as the sun shines from the south, highlighting the mountain relief.
Warsaw Skyline
A clear view of the Vistula River and the modern architectural cluster of the Polish capital.
Prague Cityscape
Sprawling views of the historic Czech capital, including its famous bridges and red-roofed districts.
Lake Constance
The massive blue expanse of the Bodensee, where Germany, Austria, and Switzerland meet.
Swiss Lowlands
The picturesque, neatly partitioned farmland and villages typical of Northern Switzerland.
The right side is excellent for city spotting, especially Warsaw and Prague. For the approach into Zurich, keep your camera ready for Lake Constance, which is particularly striking during the 'golden hour' at sunset.
