Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for the iconic Doha skyline shortly after takeoff and typically provides a better view of Berlin's central landmarks during the standard western approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Doha West Bay

Breathtaking views of the Corniche and the skyscraper-dense skyline of Qatar's capital during the climb.

🏜️

Mesopotamian Plains

The historical heart of Iraq, featuring the winding path of the Euphrates River through the desert.

🏔️

Taurus Mountains

Dramatic, jagged snow-capped peaks as the aircraft transits from the Middle East into Turkish airspace.

⛰️

Carpathian Mountains

Rugged alpine terrain and dense forests visible over Romania and Slovakia during the mid-flight cruise.

🏰

Central Berlin

On many approach patterns, clear views of the Fernsehturm (TV Tower) and the Spree River.

Book a seat well ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the mountains. For morning flights, the left side is shaded from the harsh southern sun, making it easier to take photos without glare.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Persian Gulf Coast

Stunning contrasts between the turquoise gulf waters and the white-sand coastlines of Kuwait.

🏔️

Lake Van

Turkey's largest saline soda lake, surrounded by high volcanic peaks in the Eastern Anatolia region.

🏖️

Black Sea Coast

Glimpses of the dark blue waters and the lush green coastal forests of northern Turkey.

🏞️

Danube River

The massive artery of Europe as it winds through the Hungarian and Slovakian plains.

🌲

Brandenburg Lakes

The scenic, lake-heavy landscape of the German countryside just before landing in Berlin.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset colors over the European plains. Keep an eye out for Lake Van, which is a massive blue landmark that is hard to miss on a clear day.
