Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a more diverse geographic display, including the Black Sea coastline, the dramatic Carpathian mountain curve, and prime views of the Danube River.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Black Sea Coast

Vibrant blue waters meeting the lush green Pontic Mountains along the Turkish coast.

🏰

Carpathian Arc

The majestic sweep of the Transylvanian Alps and the Carpathian range in Romania.

💧

Danube River

The winding blue artery of Europe, visible as it snakes through multiple countries.

🏙️

Budapest Panorama

A perfect aerial view of the Hungarian capital and its iconic bridges over the river.

🏰

Prague

The 'City of a Hundred Spires' is frequently visible from the right when the northern route is taken.

🏭

The Ruhr Valley

The fascinating industrial sprawl and urban connectivity of Germany's heartland upon descent.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side. Watch for the sharp transition from the Black Sea to the Balkan plains. Have your camera ready roughly 2-3 hours into the flight for the best river and city views.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏔️

Eastern Anatolia

The rugged volcanic plateaus and high-altitude terrain of eastern Turkey shortly after departure.

⛰️

Balkan Mountains

Dense forest ridges and limestone peaks stretching across Bulgaria and Serbia.

❄️

The Alps

Distant views of the snow-capped Austrian Alps appearing on the southern horizon.

🏙️

Frankfurt Skyline

The high-rise 'Mainhattan' skyline often visible during the cross-country transit of Germany.

Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind the aircraft, reducing glare on the window. This side is also superior for spotting the southern mountain ranges of Europe at a distance.
