Corfu & Ionian Islands
Spectacular views of Lefkada and Corfu shortly after departing Kefalonia.
Dalmatian Archipelago
The intricate network of Croatian islands and the rugged coastline along the Adriatic Sea.
The Dolomites
The unique, jagged limestone formations of the Italian Dolomites are often visible in clear weather.
Garden of England
During the descent into Gatwick, enjoy views of the Kentish countryside and the historic castles of Southern England.
Choose the right side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is consistently better for coastal geography, particularly the stunning transition from the Greek islands to the Balkan coastline.
