Which side of the plane to sit from Düsseldorf Airport (Duesseldorf) to Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior for this route as it typically offers the most iconic views of Corfu Town and the Old Fortress on the final approach, alongside a better angle of the central Austrian Alps.
Rhine-Ruhr Area
Excellent views of the densely populated urban landscape and the Rhine river winding through Western Germany shortly after departure.
Austrian Alps
A breathtaking crossing of the snow-capped Tyrolean peaks, providing dramatic mountain vistas during the middle of the flight.
Venetian Lagoon
Potential distant views of the historic canals and islands of Venice as the aircraft traverses the upper Adriatic Sea.
Corfu Old Town
On the standard approach to Runway 34, the left side offers an unbeatable view of the UNESCO-listed old town and its massive Venetian fortresses.
For the best photography, choose a seat well ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On the final approach into Corfu, stay alert as the plane descends over the Ionian Sea; the left side provides the famous 'close-up' view of the city and the landmark Mouse Island.
Black Forest
Glimpse the vast, dark green expanse of the German Black Forest and the rolling hills of Baden-Wuerttemberg.
Arlberg Region
Rugged limestone peaks and deep valleys of the western Austrian mountain ranges during the alpine transit.
Adriatic Sea
Vast blue horizons and the transition from the Italian mainland to the open water.
Albanian Riviera
Stunning views of the rugged, mountainous coastline of Albania and Northern Greece just before landing.
The right side is the better choice for afternoon flights as it helps avoid direct sunlight glare coming from the south. Keep an eye out for the rugged Greek mainland coastline, which offers a dramatic contrast to the turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea during the descent.
