Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for spotting the northern rim of the Alps on clear days and provides an excellent view of Lake Balaton and the winding Danube river as you cross into the Pannonian Basin.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Sauerland Highlands

The 'Land of a Thousand Mountains' provides scenic ridges and valleys immediately south of Dortmund.

🏔️

Alpine Panorama

On clear days, the jagged skyline of the Northern Limestone Alps is visible far to the south.

🌆

Vienna & Bratislava

The flight path often passes directly between these two capitals, offering views of the Vienna Woods and the Danube.

💧

Lake Balaton

Central Europe's largest freshwater lake appears as a distinctive turquoise sliver in the Hungarian landscape.

🌊

The Danube River

Multiple sightings of the mighty Danube as it snakes through Hungary toward the Serbian border.

The right side is the clear winner for geographic variety. For morning flights, be aware of the southern sun which can be quite bright; however, this is the side you need for the iconic view of Lake Balaton and the distant Alps. Try to get a seat away from the wing to see the Danube bends clearly.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏭

Ruhr Industrial Landscape

Unique aerial view of the historic industrial clusters and urban sprawl of the Ruhr area shortly after takeoff.

🌲

Thuringian Forest

Dense, dark green canopies of one of Germany's most famous low mountain ranges.

🏰

Prague & Central Bohemia

The 'City of a Hundred Spires' is often visible to the north-east, nestled in the rolling Czech countryside.

🏔️

High Tatra Mountains

In the distance, the sharp, snow-capped peaks of the Slovakian Carpathians mark the horizon.

🌾

Pannonian Steppe

The vast, geometric patterns of the Hungarian agricultural plains leading toward the Romanian border.

Sit on the left for a chance to see Prague and the rugged Tatra mountains in the distance. This side is best for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side of the aircraft, reducing window glare for photography.
