Which side of the plane to sit from Düsseldorf Airport (Duesseldorf) to Kos Airport (Kos)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular sequence of European highlights, including the highest peaks of the Austrian Alps, the turquoise waters of the Adriatic coastline, and a panoramic view of the Greek islands during the descent.
High Tauern Range
Stunning views of the Großglockner, Austria's highest peak, and surrounding glaciers in the Central Eastern Alps.
Dalmatian Coast
The crystal-clear turquoise waters and thousands of white islands along the Croatian shoreline.
Gulf of Corinth
The narrow strip of water separating the Peloponnese from mainland Greece, often visible as you cross the Ionian Sea.
Saronic Gulf
Distant views of the Attica region and the islands surrounding the approach to Athens.
Cyclades Archipelago
A bird's-eye view of iconic islands like Mykonos or Naxos, characterized by their volcanic geology and deep blue surroundings.
Book the right side for the ultimate Mediterranean experience. On afternoon flights, the sun will be behind you or to the side, highlighting the vibrant colors of the Adriatic. Ensure you are seated away from the wing for the best views of the Dinaric Alps and the Greek coastline.
Ruhr Metropolis
Aerial view of the dense urban network and industrial heritage sites of Germany's largest metropolitan area shortly after takeoff.
Salzkammergut Alps
Glance at the rugged limestone massifs of the Dachstein and the picturesque lake regions of Upper Austria.
Balkan Interior
Deep river canyons and forested ridges spanning through Serbia and North Macedonia.
Bodrum Peninsula
Clear views of the Turkish coastline and the white-washed houses of Bodrum during the final approach into Kos.
The left side is preferable for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. It offers better views of the Turkish mainland as you circle for landing at KGS. Watch for the massive open-cast mines in Western Germany shortly after departure.
