Which side of the plane to sit from Dortmund Airport (Dortmund) to Zonguldak Airport (Zonguldak)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the Carpathian Mountains and provides a better perspective of the Black Sea coastline as the aircraft makes its final approach into Zonguldak.
Ruhr Industrial Landscape
Aerial view of the dense urban sprawl and industrial heritage sites surrounding Dortmund immediately after takeoff.
Prague and Central Bohemia
Clear views of the Vltava River and the red-roofed skyline of the Czech capital on typical flight paths.
Southern Carpathians
The dramatic, jagged peaks of the Transylvanian Alps in Romania, offering some of the most rugged terrain in Europe.
The Black Sea
A vast expanse of deep blue water as the flight leaves the Bulgarian coast and heads toward the Turkish shoreline.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Look out about 90 minutes into the flight for the Romanian mountains. During the approach to Zonguldak, you will see the rugged northern Turkish coastline stretching toward the east.
Franconian Heartland
Vistas of the historic city of Nuremberg and the rolling green hills of Southern Germany.
The Danube River
Stunning views of Europe's second-longest river as it winds through Hungary and the Balkan borders.
Balkan Interior
The dense forests and rural villages of the Stara Planina mountain range across Bulgaria.
Ereğli Steelworks
Massive industrial ports and the coastal city of Ereğli visible just before the final descent into Zonguldak.
The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to capture sunset hues over the Balkan Peninsula. During the descent, keep your camera ready for the steep, forested cliffs of the Pontic Mountains meeting the sea.
