Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a spectacular vantage point for the Eastern Alps and the rugged peaks of the Dinaric Alps, providing a more dramatic topographical experience.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Frankfurt Hub

Distant views of Germany's main financial center and the surrounding Rhine-Main area.

🏔️

Eastern Alps

Stunning views of the Austrian peaks, often snow-capped even in late spring.

💧

Lake Balaton

Hungary's large freshwater lake, known for its distinct pale green-blue color.

⛰️

Dinaric Alps

Dramatic karst landscapes and limestone ridges as you enter the Balkan Peninsula.

✝️

Mount Vodno

The Millennium Cross atop the mountain overlooking the Skopje valley during landing.

The right side is superior for mountain lovers; the Alps are the journey's highlight. For the best photography, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the engine against the Alpine backdrop. On morning flights, the lighting on the Balkan mountains is particularly soft and beautiful.

Left Side Highlights

🏭

Ruhr Area

Dense urban landscape and industrial heritage of the Dortmund region during takeoff.

🏔️

Harz Mountains

Forested mountain range visible to the north during the early cruise phase.

🌊

Danube River

Long stretches of the iconic river winding through the plains of Central Europe.

🏛️

Belgrade

Opt for the left side on afternoon flights to avoid the glare of the southern sun. This side provides excellent views of the urban layouts of major cities like Belgrade and Budapest depending on the specific airway taken.
